Florina Laufeyson Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Corn of the house Targaryen the first of his name, king of the kernels and the first men, lord of the seven popcorns and the protector of the realm.You win the internets.Maybe something Starkish to appease them.Braeghar or Nedgar.LMAO! Jaehaerys seems likely. If Jon had been a girl, he'd have been Visenya for sure. But there is a high chance of Lyanna and Rhae-man devising a name for Jon prior to birth. Girl = Visenya. Boy = ?? But maybe Jaehaerys after Rhaegar's grandpa? If Lyanna chose the name, its possible it could Torrhen after Torrhen Stark, the last King in the North.

JP Dayne Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Rhaegar wanted him to be called "Jon" after Lord Connington. Lyanna wanted to call him" Jon" after king Jon Stark.But Ned defied them both by calling him "Jon" after Lord Arryn.this, pretty much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Daddy Dave Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 It seems to me that no matter how much Rhaegar wanted his third child to be a girl, he wouldn't have left for war without agreeing on a boy and girl's name with Lyanna. IMO, if she picked a northern name, it was Jon. Narratively, I don't see any reason for any other name. If Rhaegar picked it, then I'm sure that name was his real name and it will be revealed in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateDuchess Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Would that have made Rhaegar Pop Corn?It is 2 am and I am snorting and wheezing into my hand so I don't wake the whole house up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalalOfDorne Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I never really thought about that. I always just assumed he was expecting a "Visenya" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWR Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 No name. Rhaegar would throw him into the sea, because he was supposed to be a girl.I could see this.The guy gets a pass because he's this emo warrior bard whose songs give teenage girls the screaming thigh sweats. People forget he was a grown ass man with a wife & kids that he walked out on because of some prophecy in a book. Not to mention this is the same prophecy that his batshit crazy daddy also believed in. I think if Rhaegar had lived to see Lyanna birth a boy & then die Westeros would've been looking at the Mad King2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caravaggio Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If Rhaegar's vision which lead him to Lyanna also showed Aegon and the others dying he might have named him Aegon.I think either Dareon or Baelor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C0bR Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 +2 for Nedgar.Funny thing is that it could be actually Edgar, but no, let's go Nedgar :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukle Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If he thought he was going to be a girl I think he would have wanted to name him Visenya, So his kiddies could mirror Aegon I and his sisters. I don't think he doubted that the baby would be born female because he was so into the prophecy. Which is why I wonder if the name he whispered before he died was Visenya for his child he would never see or if he did say Lyanna.Now there is an interesting thought. "Visenya" is a woman's name... but I still think he said Lyanna, although won't think anyone who says Visenya is without merit. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yukle Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 search never works for meYou can search in Google by ending your searches with site:asoiaf.westeros.org I think. That said, this isn't shown anywhere prominent so I'm not sure why it's expected everyone knows this. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if Rhaegar had lived to see Lyanna birth a boy & then die Westeros would've been looking at the Mad King2.0.Yup spot on, I think this would have been Rhaegar's tipping point similar to Viserys'. He's practically torn the kingdom in half for Rhaenys, Aegon and Visenya; but what kept him going was knowing that the ends will justify the means. If he had come back to the ToJ, and Lyanna presents him with a small, dark haired, grey eyed baby, who also has a penis; curtains for Rhaegar because he's gone :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
