My mind went straight to John Wayne Bobbit, and I assumed the gentleman in question had voluntarily lopped his Johnson off.

Hobbit is a trademark. May be bobbits are generic creatures trying to avoid copyright problems.

I tried to type it out again and apparently my MacBook’s autocorrect is culprit!

Trust Apple to ignore the existence of hobbit and go for the nearly-only-ever-seen-in-relation-to-Johnson-chopping bobbit. I’m sure you had a wonderful user experience over that.
