Was Boruto named after Neji?
Boruto's name is a pun on 'bolt,' not a tribute to Neji. Seems like the Uzumakis enjoy their hardware-themed names!

Nope, Boruto wasn鈥檛 named after Neji. Boruto鈥檚 name comes from the Japanese pronunciation of 'bolt,' playing on the theme of his dad's name, Naruto (which means 'maelstrom' or 'whirlpool').
That's a cool idea, but Boruto is named after the Japanese word for 'bolt,' not after Neji.
Boruto is actually a play on the word 'bolt,' reflecting his energetic and electrifying personality. Neji's name means 'screw,' but there's no direct link.
