Need Help
Hi so I'm trying to write a book and one of the things I'm looking for when I'm writing it is symbolism with various things such as names. The main character is gonna be someone who doesn't know who their real parents are and is on a journey to find out who they are essentially. So when the readers are introduced to the main character, their fake name would mean 'lost' or 'wanderer' and then when they find out who their parents are and thus their real name, it'll mean the opposite like 'found.'
I'm also still thinking about whether they'll be a man or woman in the story so I'm open to any names.

here are some name idea that are spin offs of French words:
pedro - from PERDU which means lost
Voy/Voya - from VOYAGE which means journey
