 Gandalf - meaning of word
Gandalf is initially unable to accompany Frodo and his companion Samwise Gamgee, because he goes to seek counsel from the head of his order, Saruman the White, but he rejoins them in Rivendell as the second half of ''The Fellowship of the Ring (book)'' begins.
Many of Gandalf's attributes seem to be derived from the Norse mythology Odin's incarnation as "the Wanderer", an old man with one eye, a long white beard, a wide brimmed hat, and a staff.
Gandalf the White was not the same as Gandalf the Grey: he had become more powerful, and more wise.

When he was eighteen years old he took his kingdom in Agder, and went immediately to Vestfold, where he divided that kingdom, as before related, with his brother Olaf.
They had many battles, and sometimes one, sometimes the other gained the victory; but at last they agreed that Halfdan should have half of Vingulmark, as his father Gudrod had had it before.
There was a great battle; but Halfdan being overpowered by the numbers of people fled to the forest, leaving many of his men on this spot.
