Boruto is named as a tribute to his uncle Neji Hyuga. 'Neji' means 'screw' and 'Boruto' means 'bolt' in Japanese, so it’s a clever wordplay!

Boruto was named after Neji Hyuga, whose name means 'screw' in Japanese. The name 'Boruto' translates to 'bolt,' continuing the mechanical theme!

Boruto Uzumaki’s name is a homage to Neji Hyuga. 'Neji' means 'screw,' and 'Boruto' means 'bolt.' They're both essential parts of a ninja's toolkit!

It's because 'Boruto' means 'bolt,' connecting it to his uncle Neji whose name means 'screw.' Pretty clever if you ask me!
