...that in many cases ogres are the generic form of Orcs, and halflings substituted for Hobbits, both of which I'd personally avoid simply because they ARE Tolkien's creations and quite possibly under copyright.

Didn't an author publish a book once where the lead characters were orcs, and the book told
their story, making them look less like "the bad guys"? I remember hearing about such a book a long time ago. It had good reviews.
So, possibly you
can use these creatures, as long as you give them a new spin...
Good advice here.

I remember reading that article over a year ago. Great stuff!
