The name Percy originated in France. It means piercing the valley which also can mean fighting the lower side, the evil side, to reach justice. Jackson means son of Jack. I know, I don't get it either.
As the son of a god, Percy has to face many challenges. Because Percy is a demigod, monsters are frequently attracted to him. He has to fight a Minotaur and a Fury on his journey to Camp Half-Blood. Plus, Percy still has to deal with normal kid-issues. He feels alone at school and doesn't have many friends. I kind of always felt like an outsider in school like Percy does, Riordan explained. Fortunately, I never had to fight a Greek monster!. At Camp Half-Blood, Percy learns battle skills such as sword-fighting and archery.
