Interesting... I hadn’t caught that the different houses had different names for the bastards.

You mentioned 6 bastard names.

There are 7 kingdoms/Houses.

I wonder if Fire/Flame could be the bastard name of a Targarion. That would make Jon Snow both Flame and Snow or..
both Fire and Ice!

Since the Targaryens are associated with Fire, Jon Snow most certainly would be Fire and Ice. Maybe not in name, but definitely in blood.

I forgot Pyke, that is the bastard name for the Iron Islands. The Targaryens had no special name for their bastards, they would take the bastard name of whatever region they grew up in. For example, Bloodraven (the three-eyed raven on the show), was a Targaryen bastard whose real name was Brynden Rivers.

Some of the Targaryen bastards did get legimitized though, and then chose other names, one of those was Daemon Blackfyre. If any Blackfyres are left though, they are probably in exile in Essos.
