The books are simply numbered 1 through 6. They are published with two books to a volume, which are named 1. Fellowship of the Ring 2. The Two Towers 3. The Return of the King.
There are many other books on Middle Earth
The books are traditionally published as The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King. And that's the order you should read them in. I'm pretty sure the movies used the same titles, if that's what you were asking about.
The order in which the Lord of the Rings trilogy was published (in 1954 and 1955), and should be read is:
The trilogy was begun as a sequel to Tolkien's 1937 children's fantasy, The Hobbit.
The Lord of the Rings books proper do not have names. They are simply titled: Book I, Book II, Book III, Book IV, Book V, and Book VI.
The Fellowship of the Ring is the first in the trilogy, then The Two Towers, and finally Return of the King.
The order is as follows: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King
While in the published version they are titled simply as Book I, Book II, etc. there were originally going to be titles for each Book before The Lord of the Rings was split by the publisher to be printed in 3 separate volumes of The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King. Based off suggestions by Tolkien, posthumously 1999 British millennium set had each of the 6 Books (with a 7th for the Appendices) in their own Volume Titled as thus:
I: The Ring Sets Out
II: The Ring Goes South
III: The Treason of Isengard
IV: The Ring Goes East
V: The War of the Ring
VI: The End of the Third Age
The first ever Lord of the Rings movie was The Lord of the Rings (1978), but of the trilogy starting in 2001, the first movie was called The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
