Boruto's name is a play on the Japanese word 'bolt,' keeping with the Uzumaki naming tradition since Naruto is based on 'narutomaki,' a type of fish cake with a spiral. It's also a nod to Neji Hyuga, 'Neji' means screw, and 'Bolt' is just a different type of screw, honoring his uncle.

Boruto is a pun on the word 'bolt', reflecting the strong and steadfast nature of his character. Plus, it sounds cool!

Because naming him 'Steve' wouldn't be nearly as epic.
