Meaning: Aegon means "sword's edge."

Aegon is a masculine name with deep historical and literary roots, most notably recognized from the epic fantasy series "A Song of Ice and Fire" by George R.R. Martin, which was adapted into the popular television series "Game of Thrones." The name Aegon, often associated with leadership and strength, carries a regal air, as it was borne by several kings in the fictional Targaryen lineage within the series. In onomastics, the study of names, Aegon is an example of how literature and media can significantly influence the perception and popularity of a name. While not commonly used in contemporary settings, the name's association with powerful and charismatic fictional characters has imbued it with a sense of majesty and grandeur.
