Targaryen Names

These are a list of names from Fire and Blood (the Targaryen history book by GRRM) that I think could become part of a posh kindergarten classroom. I also included some alternative/simplified spellings.

  1. Daenys, pronounced Day-knees
  2. Rhaenyra, pronounced as in House of the Dragon. potentially Raenyra
  3. Daenaera, pronounced as Day-nay-ruh
    • could be made to rhyme with Rhaenyra when spelled Daenyra
  4. Rhaelle, pronounced as Raelle on Motherland: Fort Salem which also offers a different spelling
  5. Vaelle, rhymes with Raelle
  6. Aemond, just as seen on House of the Dragon
  7. Jacerys, just as seen on House of the Dragon. Nickname: Jace
  8. Lucerys, just as seen on House of the Dragon. Nickname: Luke
  9. Laena, just as seen on House of the Dragon
  10. Baela, just as seen on House of the Dragon
  11. Rhaena, just as seen on House of the Dragon potentially, Raena, Reina, Reyna
  12. Jahaera, pronounced J’hair-uh potentially, Jahara
  13. Jahaerys, just as seen on House of the Dragon potentially, Jaharys
  14. Shiera, rhymes with Shira
  15. Viserra, pronounced Viss-eh-ra
  16. Viserys, just as seen on House of the Dragon
  17. Aemma like Emma

Bonus: I really like the way GRRM made the following names magical sounding with his fantastical spellings. These are not true Targaryens, but still connected to the dynasty:

  1. Alysanne for Alison
  2. Alys for Alice
  3. Jeyene for Jane
  4. Dyanna for Diana
  5. Betha instead of just Beth
  6. Bryden instead of Brendan
  7. Saera for Sarah
  8. Daeron for Darren
