Joshua Hexson

Etymology
The name "Joshua" comes from the Hebrew name יהושע (y'hoshúa) meaning "Yahweh is salvation", "salvation", "to deliver/be liberated", or "to be victorious". Joshua is also one of the main characters in the Old Testament of the Bible. There are no given reference to the surname Hexson, maybe it's only invented by the filmakers. Possibly it comes from the word Hex which is a type of spell that used throughout the Harry Potter series.
