Best Answer

Percival repeats his name all the time in Lord of the Flies because it is the only thing that he has to remind himself of who he is and from where he came. It is his only tie to humanity.

What purpose does little Percival Wemys Madison serve now at the end of Lord of the Flies?

Coupled with Ralph's forgetfulness of why he was lighting the fire, the memory of civilization is clearly illustrated as fading.
