I was thinking more like an otter or seal. Closable nostrils, able to hold their breath for fairly long, nictitating membranes, webbed fingers.

Remove their skin selkies?

I kind of like the sound of "hulder" but it get the impression it means something not much like hobbits.

Hulder (Norwegian), Huldra (Swedish) is a kind of mountainous fairy/troll/goblin. They are mostly antagonistic towards humans.
