Use of Jungle Book names in scouting
When the founder of the scouting movement Lord Robert Baden-Powell was looking for a model to base the structure of scouting on, he hit upon the idea of using the names of characters from Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. Below is a list of the names which were eventually used. I have been unable to ascertain if they are all still in use, though looking at them now I somewhat doubt it. For instance, I notice that Jeebi (the Ghost) is the name which may be given, 'at Akela's discretion', to the Fattest Cub. I'm guessing that one's not so popular any more. Likewise, in the 'Names Awarded for Prowess in Cub Activities' list, there are special names given to scouts who are particularly good at 'Book-carrying' and 'Hopping', activites which are perhaps not as highly prized or as unusual as they seemingly once were.
