Rhaenyra named her son Aegon because she is a fan of the Aegon, Rhaenys and Visenya trio, and to spite Alicent 😂. petty Queen ❤
absolutely! Yes it was to bother Alicent but obviously there were more reasons not that specific one, please we are talking about the most perfect baby in the world and her first child with Daemon, baby Aegon was too special to only be called that to annoy her stepmother, it was the name of the most important man of the Targaryen dynasty and she saw it as appropriate for her baby 🫶
“And rather than mourn her late husband, Rhaenyra at last wed her uncle, Prince Daemon. In the last days of 120 AC, she even delivered him his first son, whom she named Aegon, after the Conqueror.” (The World of Ice and Fire, pg. 72)
Stupid Daemyra antis who want to deny she wanted to marry Daemon from the start say what?
Also can we take a moment to appreciate the amazing amount of respect Rhaenyra had for Laenor? 👌🏻 I’m sure no one in Westeros thought she was taking a d_mp on his memory. Truly arranged marriage goals.
