It is what Tolkien made it. "Know yourself, be yourself," is my motto. If you love a Tolkien name, use it as a Tolkien name. He created some very beautiful ones (which are, helpfully, becoming more commonly known and recognized since the films). If you like it, embrace it for what it is, be proud of it, accent and all.

And also, having an accent doesn't make it much more difficult, nor is it pretentious IMO. Go with your gut instinct though, it is lovely with or without it.
