i dunno what you mean, men of the west is just english for dunedain. in his conceit of translating the book from the original westron, the toponymy around bree was always meant to have celtic vibes and the rohirrim were always meant to have anglo-saxon vibes.
the dwarves had gothic-sounding names (in english translation) because they took those names from people related to the rohirrim, and since the rohirrim were getting anglo-saxon-coded, these guys got a related gothic-coding.
and there were always nazis who liked the books and liked to read their own shit into it.
