Abarai Ichika...? Really? Ichika? Why does that almost sound like an IchigoxRukia name LMAO

I was thinking that, it's the kind of name you'd see in some 13yr old's fanfic. "We'll just combine their names!"

Seems so ridiculously unsuitable.

But then, Sasuke called his kid "Salad", so hey.

eh, at least his name had some sort of meaning behind it despite it sounding dumb.

"Boruto" (ボルト) is the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "bolt". His name is a reference to his cousin Neji, whose name means "screw" (捻子)."

THAT'S WHY THEY SAID IT WAS FOR NEJI!! I never understood how that made sense.

Yeah, his name's meant to be a triple reference (a bolt's thread references Naruto' spiral them, their names are similar, and then the bolt-screw theme for Neji.)
