Ofc it was Bill the pony!
Well, Bilbo and Frodo were both single children, and neither married ... The Old Took, and Sam and Rose Gamgee, on the other hand ...
I think it refers to Ecthelion
It kind of doesn't matter. As per the published Silmarillion, Ecthelion and Glorfindel took out one each, both at the sack of Gondolin. As per that obscure footnote of JRRT's that I came across in my recent re-reading of HoMe, there having been at most seven, or even just three - I guess it must be seven, because Balrogs were destroyed in the War of Wrath ending the First Age. But we know one at least must have been left over for Gandalf to get rid of in the Third Age ...I think it refers to Ecthelion
