When did I say I was better than anyone else?

Sure, it wasn't in the OP but this is general discussion, and people started talking about preferences. These are mine. And I'm allowed to have them.

FTR, because I don't like your character's name doesn't mean anything about YOU. I've never met you and thus I don't have an opinion about you. No need to take everything so personally.

I'm also an avid lover of LOTR, which is precisely why I don't like Tauriel. She doesn't fit and I personally find her insertion distracting.

Also, a different way to look at this is an FYI about what people might think of when they see your (or anyone's name). It's for your knowledge. Heck, if people didn't like my name for whatever reason it's not a stretch to think I might want to know.
