some more august ideas, Pinocchio is sounding really good, since wood needs water, and august loves water… maybe the magic water from the lake brought him to life, maybe he’s one of those freaky plants..lol on a side notehe also went to see lemurs, which are on madagascar, which is an island, and pinocchio goes to pleasure island in the stories.
Again here’s another theory. Is that, August is Honest John, from pinocchio since he never lies. the name John being a Lost tie in as well.
and Finally… possibly Jack… as in “Jack and Jill went up a hill to fetch a pail of water” I.E. the well…. jack also shows up in other fairy tales, “jack in the bean stock” and “jack be nimble”. Jack would also be a Lost tie in.
