Is this in the book? I don't remember that at least...

This is in the hobbit. Gandalf and crew find Glamdring, Orcrist, and Sting in the troll hoard, and Elrond tells them the names of the blades. Sting was named by Bilbo since the knife didn't have an elvish name

Bilbo was a huge fan of The Police.

A little known fact is that Bilbo named his mithril coat Stuart and his ring Andy.

I remember them finding the swords (& dagger 😁) but not the rest.

Thanks! Totally forgot about that detail.
