Benjen embarks on a journey to the Wall from the south, but does not return. He later appears and saves Brandon and Meera from the army of wights. He tells them how he almost died and was rescued by the Children of the Forest.

Benjen is a solid option if you are looking for a name starting with B. It can be a fresh alternative to Benjamin.

17. Bran

Brandon Stark, better known as Bran, is the fourth child of Eddard and Catelyn Stark. Bran loses his legs after being pushed out of the window by Jaime when he discovers his incestuous relationship. He relies on Hodor, for moving around. In spite of not having his legs, Bran does not lose spirit and continues to pursue the Three Eyed Raven. Bran is the one major character who can help in the war against the White Walkers.

The name Bran saw a slight spike in popularity in the 70s and stayed stagnant until the release of Game of Thrones. In 2013, 11 babies were named Bran.

Bran will work well as a nickname, short, or standalone name for your son. The meaning of Bran is ‘broom-covered hill’.

Khal Drogo was the chieftain of the Dothraki people. Though he initially was a philanderer, after being married to Daenerys he falls in love with her. He fathers a child with her but he and the child both die due to a witch’s black magic.

Drogo begins to respect women after his wife teaches him the good and bad of things. Drogo was the only Khal who was never defeated by anyone and showed traits of bravery and respect for his people.

22. Eddard

Probably one of the fairest characters on the show, Lord Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North, was hailed as just and honorable by many. He was a good husband and father, and a loyal friend to Robert Baratheon. He was known as Ned Stark, and in spite of his early demise in the series, the name Ned saw 64 parents choosing this for their baby boys.

23. Eddison

Eddison Tollett is one of the important members of the Night’s Watch, a dear friend to Jon Snow, and a brave man who fought and killed the mutineers in Caster’s Keep. Even in the war between the Free Folk and Night’s Watch, he bravely assists Jon and takes over the responsibility of Night’s Watch (though not as a Lord Commander).

Eddison, which means ‘Ed’s son’, is quite a smart name for boys. The alternative spelling, Edison, is growing in popularity.

24. Gregor

Ser Gregor Clegane is the elder brother of Sandor and the Head of House Clegane. He is referred to as the Mountain because of his towering personality. He is an evil man, who is extremely violent.

One of the cutest and loved characters on the show, Hodor is a simple-minded person, whose real name is Wylis. He doesn’t say anything except the word ‘hodor’. This is because future Bran wargs into his mind when Bran and Meera are escaping from the army of wights. Hodor is a simple character who serves the Stark family and is protective of Rickon and Bran.

You could name your child Wylis, which stands for ‘well-watered meadow’.

27. Jaime

Jaime, the knight of the Kingsguard and the son of Tywin Lannister, was the swashbuckling action hero of the series until he lost a hand. He is infamous for being in a relationship with his sister Cersei.

In all of his bad light, he is a fair man as he saves thousands of people from the madness of the Mad King by killing him and getting the name ‘Kingslayer’. He believes that wars can be won without violence and allies are important to win wars. He is not as erratic and extreme as his twin Cersei.

This biblical name James will suit kids of both sexes, and sounds more stylish than Jimmy. 14 baby boys were given this name in 2015.

28. Jaqen

Jaqen H’ghar is a mysterious man who is one of the Faceless Men. They are a group of mysterious assassins who can change their shapes as per will and acquire a new face each time.

29. Joffrey

King Joffrey Baratheon was the eldest son born out of the incestuous relationship of Cersei and Jamie. Though he was the King of the Seven Kingdoms briefly, he was murdered by Olenna and Littlefinger.

In his reign, he was never known to be a good king to his subjects. He never helped people and was also cruel and wicked. He tortured Sansa and also gave orders for Ned’s execution.

No wonder parents haven’t taken up this name for their little boys. But Joffery is a nice name meaning ‘peaceful pledge’.

30. Jon

Jon Snow is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen. He is the King in the North and was the former Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch. Known to be just, fearless, and one of the few people to have seen the Night King, Jon understands the war that is coming.

Jon is one of the few characters in the show who is not interested in the Iron Throne but in winning a war for humanity, against the Night Walkers. He is an inspiration to many as he managed to get the Free Folk and all of North together, after killing Ramsay Bolton.

Jon was quite a choice amongst parents with 23 parents opting this name in 2015. Jon, a variation of John or Jonathan, means ‘Jehovah has shown favor’.

31. Jorah

Jorah Mormont is the exiled knight who protects Daenerys Targaryen. Formerly, he worked as a spy for Varys and got information about Targaryen exiles. But he starts admiring Daenerys and begins serving her in earnest. He even saves her from an assassination attempt and stops her from sending reports to Varys. Jorah also develops strong and unrequited feelings for her.

This is one of the biblical Game of Thrones boy names meaning ‘early rain’, and is a great alternative to Jonah or Jordan. The name is also similar to feminine names Laura, Cora, and Nora.

32. Oberyn

Prince Oberyn Martell or the Red Viper of Dorne had only one intention in mind – to seek revenge against his sister’s killers. He was a good swordsman and was known for his fighting skills. He even offered to be Tyrion’s champion in the trial by combat, but was killed at the hands of the Mountain.

The character has always been neutral on the show and hence this name can be considered for a baby boy.

33. Petyr

Famously known as Littlefinger, Lord Petyr Baelish is a manipulating and wicked man. He dreams of ruling the Seven Kingdoms one day, and indulges in cruel acts. He marries Lady Lysa Tully and after murdering her, he becomes the Lord Protector of Vale. He even forces Sansa to marry Ramsay, who is known to be a torturer.

Though the character has a negative shade, Petyr is a variation of the name Peter that means ‘stone’. It is a unique choice of name to give your little boy.

34. Podrick

Podrick Payne, or Pod, is one of the cutest characters on the show. Known for his loyalty and quick wit, Podrick never disobeys his master(s). He first served Tyrion and then Lady Brienne. He is always eager to learn sword fighting and art of war.

Podrick has shown courage and loyalty through the series, and this must give you a reason to choose this cute name for your baby boy.

35. Pycelle

Grand Maester Pycelle was a man of many shades. Though he was the reverent servant of Cersei, he was ordered to be killed by her when he grew jealous of Qyburn and put his loyalty in Olenna.

36. Qyburn

Though a former maester, he was stripped of his rank for conducting weird human experiments. However, he comes into the service of Cersei, and soon becomes her confidant. He even brings back The Mountain from death, turning him into a hideous creature.

Qyburn isn’t a name you would find anyone using, which means it is definitely up for grabs.

37. Ramsay

Ramsay: Wild garlic.

The cruellest and vicious character on the show, Ramsay Snow is the legitimized bastard of Roose Bolton. He enjoyed torturing people and skinning them alive. He even killed his father, step-mother, and baby brother to get the throne. He was eventually defeated by Jon Snow, and Sansa feeds Ramsay to his own hounds.

The name has an interesting meaning. It is an English baby name for ‘wild garlic’.

38. Renly

Renly is the name of the youngest Baratheon brothers in the series. Following the death of his eldest brother Robert, Renly claims the throne, but is assassinated by a shadow creature conjured by Stannis.

This lyrical name is perfect for both boys and girls. Ren and Lee are the best possible nicknames for Renly.

39. Rickon

Rickon is the younger child of Eddard and Catelyn Stark. After the fall of Winterfell, he and Osha, a wilding girl, travel to the Last Hearth. Rickon is eventually killed by Ramsay.

As the youngest Stark, Rickon may not get a lot of screen time on the Game of Thrones, but he does have an impressive name to offer. His name is said to be a twist on the classic Richard.

40. Robb

Robb, the son of Eddard and Catelyn Stark, played a significant role. After the death of his father, Robb and his lords debate Renly or Stannis’s claim to the throne. But Greatjon declares Robb the King in the North. His continued victories against the Lannister Army get him the nickname ‘The Young Wolf’. But he is eventually killed by the Freys at the Red Wedding, along with his wife and mother.

Robb was always a just and honorable ruler, just as his father was. He was also courageous and put faith in his men. Robb was heroic, brave, and genuine in the series.

The extra ‘b’ definitely makes the name cooler.

41. Robert

Robert Baratheon was the King of the Seven Kingdoms before being murdered by his wife. He was no good as a king as all he did was drink, sleep around with women, and hunt. He was loathed by his wife Cersei and they never fathered a child together.

The name Robert means ‘famed or shining’. This would make a good choice for a baby name.

42. Samwell

Samwell Tarly, popularly called Sam, was a steward in the Night’s Watch. Samwell is smart, wise, and a kind human being. But since he is overweight and unskilled in combat, he believes himself to be a coward. Despite this, he is one of the few humans to have survived an encounter with the White Walkers. He was also one of the first humans to kill a White Walkers in thousands of years. He eventually leaves for Oldtown to become a Maester.

Samwell may not be a physically strong character, but his name exudes strength. It’s a gentle variation of Samuel. You can call your child Sam with Samwell as the given name.

43. Sandor

Sandor Clegane, nicknamed the Hound, is the personal bodyguard of Joffrey Baratheon. He was renowned for his unquestioning obedience to his master and his savage nature. He is brutal, callous, taciturn, but not without compassion. He eventually saves Arya and takes her to Vale, to her aunt’s place, for ransom. But after getting the news of her death and later being deserted by Arya, he joins the Brotherhood Without Banners.

Sandor is already a popular name in Hungary. But there are high chances that the Hound may have inspired the parents of five baby boys in 2011 and seven in 2012.

44. Stannis

King Stannis Baratheon was the Lord of Dragonstone and claimed the Iron Throne, after knowing that Joffery was born out of an incestuous relationship. He takes many wrong decisions and wages wars that he never wins. Eventually he is left to die after losing to Ramsay and is killed by Brienne for murdering Renly.

45. Theon

Theon was raised by the Starks but betrays them eventually. He was the youngest son of Lord Balon Greyjoy of the Iron Islands. Theon has had a pretty tough time after being captured and tortured by Ramsay. He was castrated and enslaved but he and Sansa escape to the Night’s Watch. He later leaves for home and runs away with his elder sister Yara to help Daenerys in her siege on Westros.

This name garnered popularity and was taken by 30 parents for their boys. Theon is also attached to the renowned Greek teacher of astronomy and mathematics.

46. Tommen

Tommen is the youngest son of Cersei and Jaime. Tommen was crowned king following the death of Joeffrey. For the little time that he ruled, he was known to be confused, always torn between the love for his mother and wife. After the destruction of the Great Sept of Baelor, he commits suicide.

The name Tommen is a fresh variation of Tom or Tommy, and would stand out amongst the common names.

47. Torgo

Torgo Nudho, or Grey Worm, is the commander of the Unsullied. He is a brave and fearless man, who takes up on anyone if the queen is in danger. He respects queen Daenerys for rescuing the slaves. He forms a part of the queen’s counsel and fights the Sons of Harpy, but fails to save Barristan.

You can use Torgo as a name as it is uncommon and defines a character who has loyalty and courage.

48. Tormund

Tormund Giantsbane was a rider and one of the key people in Mance’s army. Though he initially hated the Night’s watch, he comes to respect Jon Snow for his bravery. He joins hands with Jon Snow and fights for him in the battle between Jon and Ramsay.

Tormund is a Nordic name and would sound nice on a strong and brave boy.

49. Tyrion

Tyrion Lannister is the youngest son of Tywin Lannister. As he is a dwarf, he is often called Halfman and Imp. However, Tyrion uses his intellect and wit to overcome the prejudices.

Tyrion Lannister is famed for his love for wine and women. Despite this, he is one of the favorite characters because he has a soft heart and is nothing like a Lannister. After killing his father for the evil that he was, he goes to serve Daenerys and becomes her Hand of the Queen.

Thanks to the character’s nature, Tyrion is a great hit among parents. After seeing a steady progress, 14 parents adopted this name in 2015.

50. Tywin

Lord Tywin Lannister was the father to Jaime, Cersei, and Tyrion. He was the head of House Lannister and a shrewd man. He was brave and a good advisor to the king. He was also someone who held a lot of command and people feared him. As he always had his way, he was unjust to Tyrion who eventually killed him.

51. Varys

Lord Varys or the Master of Whisperers has only one agenda – a fit and just ruler should sit on the Iron Throne. He has nothing else in mind but the goodwill of the people of Seven Kingdoms. He even brought together House Tyrell and Sand of Snakes to fight alongside Daenerys.

Though Varys is constantly laughed upon for being a eunuch, he is one of the most efficient councilors as he always weighs options before choosing a side. Though he has black and white shades, he believes in the greater good.
