The boys never actually call him by his real name. Piggy's ability to see things clearly emerges and evolves through the novel, until finally at the end we see how he loses this ability, Piggy was a tragic casualty of savagery, and symbolizes intelectual strength over physical strenght. He is also an example of stolen innocence as he did take part in the murder of Simon, as did every other inhabitant on the island
