Summary:

There are tales of a mortal who was once taken in by the Kokiri: a young boy, orphaned and fairyless, who would one day save Hyrule from a terrible evil. Hero of Time, some call him — at least, those who still remember his journey. Before we knew him as such, however, he was simply a boy called Link. And though he would face much sorrow and hardship later in life, the story behind his name is one filled with wonder, a little chaos, and a generous pinch of cooking.

Or: The Kokiri are given an infant to care for, and he needs a proper name and nourishment. A cooking competition ensues.
