Smeagol
💡 Explanation:
Gollum's original name was Sméagol. He was a Stoor Hobbit who lived near the Gladden Fields and murdered his friend Déagol to obtain the One Ring. The Ring's influence corrupted him over centuries, transforming him into the creature Gollum. Turin and Elrond are completely different characters in Tolkien's legendarium.
