I like this one though the Pirate King if he has another name he hasn't told me.
Borrowed from the wiki for Demeter: Demeter (pronounced /dɨˈmiːtɚ/; Greek: Δημήτηρ, possibly "distribution-mother" from the noun of the Indo-European mother-earth *dheghom *mater. Which makes sense as her daughter is the Maiden, she is Mother.
Will's full name is William Scarlett and in my own mythology, he's named for William the Conqueror since that's near enough in the past to make sense. In terms of his last name, Scarlett, it changes in different versions so my explanation is that the first family member of his in Nottingham was a lost Viking with red hair and so named for their hair.
According to a baby name site, William means strong willed-warrior, which I think fits quite well.
