That would be hilarious lmao.  Though someone could still nickname him "cub" as kind of a teasing insult, even though it doesn't directly have anything to do with his name.  

As a side note, I feel like I do need to come up with a catchier name for the rp as a whole more than just "primitive tribe," buuuuut I think in terms of what the tribe's name is as far as what they call themselves is actually something that the characters can decide over the course of the roleplay.  Like, at the moment their interaction with most other tribes has been brief and distant so they really haven't needed a name to "set them apart," but eventually that may change and they have to decide what to call themselves as a people.  Which could be a cool thing of them eventually forming an identity for themselves as a culture as time goes on. 

But I still need to think of something better to call the roleplay lol.
