Korak or Jack Clayton. Boy in some Tarzan films.
In the book, by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan's real name is John Clayton II. In the film, his real name is never addressed.

Also in the book, Tarzan and Jane have a son named Korak, also known as Jack Clayton or John 'Jack' Paul Clayton IV. In Disney's version of Tarzan, Korak doesn't appear, and Tarzan and Jane have no children. However, chances of them having any is likely; Korak may be born in or prior to a new sequel or a new television series of Tarzan.

Korak, a fictional character, is the ape name of John "Jack" Clayton III, Earl of Greystoke, the son of Tarzan and Jane Porter .. In the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films, Korak was replaced by an adopted son called Boy (played by Johnny Sheffield). Tarzan and Jane never married in these films (they do in the books), and the substitution was made to avoid censorship. In the Dell comic books of the 1950s, which combine material from the books and the films, Tarzan's son was also called Boy. When the Tarzan comics returned to a more faithful portrayal of Burroughs' characters in the early 1960s, Boy disappeared and Tarzan's son was called Korak, who was later featured in his own comic book.
