I’m picturing a boy who has an innate wildness to him… Not “wild and crazy,” but rather one you could picture surviving solo on a jungle island. He is adventurous in spirit but tempered with a respect for nature and his place in the world. He cannot be contained, yet doesn’t need to be.
What might his name be?
No guidelines or preferences here… I’m branching out and need to be refreshed by others’ imaginations, not limited by my own.
Something Old-Testament-Biblical seems to fit for me–[name]Josiah[/name], [name]Micah[/name], [name]Isaiah[/name], [name]Jonah[/name], [name]Judah[/name], [name]Benjamin[/name]/[name]Bennett[/name], [name]Seth[/name], etc.
[name]Samson[/name], [name]Levi[/name], [name]Court[/name], [name]Asa[/name], [name]Cole[/name], [name]Colin[/name], [name]Corin[/name], [name]Darrin[/name], [name]Kirke[/name], Diggory, [name]Peter[/name] or [name]Caspian[/name] (I love these names and want to incorporate one of these names into theirs since [name]Lewis[/name]’ works had such great impact for me and what more adventure could you ask then of those in [name]Narnia[/name])
My first thought was [name]Benji[/name] or [name]Benjamin[/name], not quite sure why. [name]Jack[/name], [name]Will[/name], [name]Peter[/name], [name]Adam[/name], [name]Cole[/name], and [name]David[/name] also came to mind.
It’s so interesting to see the different names people land on for the same prompt. [name]Siran[/name], [name]Isaiah[/name] and [name]Owen[/name] all for the same boy!
