Dystopian YA book- the two main characters had to take care of a child. She tries to teach the child her name by pronouncing it slowly. She also might have lived in a shipping container?

The book was post-apocalyptic, and I don't remember there being many adults, if any.
The first scene I remember is of a young boy, the male MC, who is looking for the female MC. She lives in a shipping crate (I think she lived alone, or with an old man who moved out a long time ago, but I'm shaky on that part). If I remember correctly, she was in a neighborhood of sorts where everyone lived in shipping containers. (This scene might have also been reversed- maybe the boy lived in the shipping container).
The second scene I remember is both main characters are riding in some kind of cart with a child, and the girl MC tries to teach the child how to say her name by pronouncing it syllable by syllable. I remember the name was really feminine and not super common. It might have started with an A?
Like I said- super vague and possibly from two separate books. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!
