In briefanswer capsule

Elanor was the first child of Samwise Gamgee and Rose Cotton, born in the year after the Ring was destroyed. Frodo suggested the name, taking it from the small golden flower that grows in Lothlórien — an unusual choice among hobbits, who name their daughters after flowers but rarely after ones out of an Elvish country. She grew up at Bag End and later went south to Gondor, where she was among the maids attending Queen Arwen.
