I agree that it's not a name to give to your child. But for a pet I think it's simple and fun. I named my cairn terrier Frodo. In Finnish the character is "Frodo Reppuli" (reppu = bag). My family's first dog's nickname is Peppuli (peppu = butt, bottom), for the way she shakes her butt when she's happy. Peppuli rhymes with Reppuli, and at first it was a joke to name the next dog Frodo. Eventually I grew into liking the name and then I could not think of any other name for him. Also, being a LOTR fan does play a part.
It's beautiful within the story. But it doesn't fit in our society, today. I don't laugh at it though because of how amazing Tolkien's character is, but honestly it's not a good name for a person.

My dog is a ruby cavalier and his name is Frodo. It suits him well, but please don't name your child this. It's a really bad name for humans.
I think it's a good name for your pet dog or maybe even a hamster. But only one that's black or gray and fluffy.And, to Arowen Half-Elven, Frodo's real name wasn't Frodo. In fact, it was Maura.
