This "Game Of Thrones" Fan May Have Discovered Jon Snow's Real Name

Could it be that Jon’s real name is a little more…Targaryen-ish?

As you probably already know, the R+L=J theory was pretty much confirmed on the Season 6 finale of Game of Thrones.

So now we know that Jon Snow is almost definitely the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark, and not Ned Stark's bastard. There's a chance that Jon could be Robert Baratheon's son, but where's the fun in that?

But here's a shocker: Lyanna whispers her son's name to Ned, and while it's hard to hear, the name she whispers is definitely NOT "Jon."

Start watching the clip around 3m40s to hear the moment.

Here's a Vine of the moment, in case the clip gets taken down.

Redditor sparkledavisjr has a theory as to Jon's real name, and it makes a lot of sense.

"Lyanna starts by whispering 'His name is,' and then what follows appears to be a three syllable word that appears to start with a J," wrote sparkledavisjr. "I'm not a great lip-reader, but I'm fairly certain what she says is Jaehaerys."
