    If I were to choose from your selection, I think Jack Tew is fine.

    I agree with the above two. Though you could make a gimmick out of Jack Tew. Jack too what? Too tired, too hungry. Jack Tew three four, etc. Could be handy in building up the teen's environment.

    Good luck with the story!

    thank you for your replies !

    I'm agree with you : Jack Tew is better than Jack Groom

    But do you really think Jack Tew is a pretty good name for a hero or I should look for something else ?

    Other ideas for the last name :
    Grimble
    Kimble
    Womble
    Wint
    Pick
    Tosh
    Woo


    Thank

    I still think Jack Tew is the best name out of those options. As slayerofangels said, you could have a lot of fun with word play.

    Jack Tew seems to flow better in my opinion, so go along with what everyone is saying on that

    'Tew' sounds awfully like 'Tiu', which is a slang word for [f-bomb] in a Chinese dialect in Malaysia. Just on a FYI basis.

    But yeah, Jack Tew is alright.

    Personally, I would pick Jason Tew.
