The Boffin (anglicization of Bophîn, name of unknown meaning in Hobbit-speech) family were a prominent hobbit family of the Shire, associated with the region of the Yale in the Eastfarthing. Important members included Berylla Boffin, who was an ancestor of both Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, and Folco Boffin, who helped Frodo in his move from Bag End.
They were a Stoor family, and their ancestors long dwelt in Dunland before migrating northwest.
