 | | Then he took out his morning letters, and began to read, pretending to take no more notice of the old man. He had decided that he was not quite his sort, and wanted him to go away. | | | For the moment most of them took it for granted that his disappearance was nothing more than a ridiculous prank. | | | Still it is probable that Bilbo, her only son, although he looked and behaved exactly like a second edition of his solid and comfortable father, got something a bit queer in his make-up from the Took side, something that only waited for a chance to come out. |

| | GradeSaver: ClassicNote: The Hobbit - Full Summary and Analysis |
| | Of course, Bilbo will end up more like his mother, Belladonna Took, but even as "belladonna" means beautiful (woman) it is also a name for a poison. | | | It's hard to care about these things when you are happy, you have a magic ring, you are writing poetry, you are visiting the elves and you have plenty of time to discuss "prophecies" and "mere luck" with your good friend Gandalf. | | | We get a bit of social commentary here, which is not so surprising because the Hobbits really are so very British. |

| | The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum - Belladonna Took |
| | It always bothered me that this was her name, since Belladonna is so obviously a word of Italian origin, and thus is at odds with the name scheme of the hobbits, and with the language patterns of Middle Earth itself. | | | Allied with this we have the Italian meaning ('beautiful lady'), which is an appropriate one for a daughter's name; and then we have the typically Tolkienish linguistic joke, referring to the Tookish penchant for 'foolhardy' adventuring. | | | However, that raises a new question - why on earth would Tolkien name the mother of his hero "deadly nightshade"?? |

| | Belladonna (Spider-Man foe) |
| | Spidey chased her, but she blinded him with a bright light and ditched him before he could regain his sight. | | | (Spectacular Spider-Man II#47, 48) - Belladonna had the Prowler set a trap for Spider-Man. However, she betrayed the Prowler, trapping him in her vault as well, and proceeded to gas both Spidey and the Prowler. | | | When Spidey swung off "to save Kingsley," Narda, as Belladonna, called Kingsley and told him that Spidey had joined her and was coming to kill him. |
