Draxus Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 What if Jon really is a Viserys, Jahaerys, Daeron, or Maekar? lol What if Lyanna didn't name him Jon? What if she gave him an epic Targ name? And Ned just renamed him later to protect him? I realize this isn't a big deal so please don't come at me with a 'who cares' lol I'm just curious as usual of what you guys think.Tell me it wouldn't be fucking awesome for Jon to be heralded by his epicly revealed true name, 'Viserion Targaryen' or something like that omg gives me goosebumps!

western wolf Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Sure its plausible. But would such a name give him power or better position in society if it were known?Maybe if he chose it himself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Winter Rose Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Rhaeger planned to have three children so they can ride dragons in future. He hoped his first son is Aegon reborn, so he must have two sisters reborn Rhaenys and reborn Visenya. Aegon's bigger sister was Rhaenys, because he thought she would be Rhaenys reborn. So he hoped that Lyanna will give him second daughter Visenya... so Rhaegar probably wanted to call child Visenya, but if he lived enough to name Jon, he would name him Viserys.But Martin confirm it was Ned who named Jon.

Sevumar Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 When this comes up from time to time, I usually suggest that Jon's "Targaryen name" (assuming he has one) could be Daeron. There are a number of parallels between Jon and both Targaryen kings of that name, and we find out near the very beginning of Game that Jon idolizes Daeron I for his exploits in Dorne.I think we can rule out any names already in use by living Targaryens, so that excludes Aerys, Viserys, and Aegon. The only other real possibility I could see would be Jaehaerys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompeius Magnus Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Sure its plausible. But would such a name give him power or better position in society if it were known?Maybe if he chose it himself...Probably not. Remember, everyone thinks Aegon Frey's name is ridiculous.

There are a number of parallels between Jon and both Targaryen kings of that name, and we find out near the very beginning of Game that Jon idolizes Daeron I for his exploits in Dorne.That is interesting. For some odd reason, I've always imagined Rhaegar would have named him Aemon. I suppose it's mainly due to the brotherly love between Egg and Aemon.Jonaerys.... :)That is a name of a certain ship. :POn any rate, I like the name Jon Snow. More so than any Targaryen name that Rhaegar could have given him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady's Secret Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Probably not. Remember, everyone thinks Aegon Frey's name is ridiculous.Yes but that's because he's a Frey. I mean a Frey (generally thought as cravens) named after Aegon the Conqueror? Ya thats ridiculous. There's another one named Rhaegar too I think. :ack:To the OP, I kind of like Jonaerys the first of his name. It's unique and it incorporates Jon into it while still being Targaryen.That is a name of a certain ship. :PWhat Jon and Dany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other real possibility I could see would be Jaehaerys.Yes I agree: Jaehaerys or Daeron, but probably Daeron, the Young Dragon... Jon talks about him in AGOT right?? Although, if Rhaegar wanted a warriors name, I guess he could have also chosen Maekar.Actually if Rhaegar was present at the birth, then Jon surely has a Targaryen name.

RhaenysBee Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 or DaveDave TargaryenMade me laugh out loud :drunk:Anyway if Jon is a Targaryen he should really need a Targaryen name, because Jon Targaryen sounds SO bleeding lame...

Free Northman Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 If he is a Targ, I would much rather have him be Jon Targaryen - stamping his uniqueness onto the family dynasty for all ages. None of these stupid sounding Targ names for him, for he is of the North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Northman Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Also, phonetically a short first name fits much better with a multi-syllable surname. Jon Targaryen has much more impact than Jonerys Targaryen, or Daenerys Targaryen for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Ennepe Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Or just do the unbelievable and adopt Daeron as his second name! dun dun dun!…seriously, is there any noble in the series that has more than one first name? Jon Daeron Targaryen…not that bad if you ask me :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
