He's spent the past year in the company of Halfling, Dwarves, Elves and Maiar (although he doesn't know the last part, but Gandalf was old when his grandfather was young and so it wouldn't have surprised him). Before that he spent the better part of his life fighting the hordes of Mordor. And then he died. And he was brought here. Even today's events haven't felt that unusual in the grand scheme of his life.
Still, this is a different kind of -xenian? That's the word they use- than the ones that live in Middle Earth. And he is not easily surprised, so congratulations.
After a pause, he replies, "Boromir, son of Denethor."
