Aegon Targaryen (son of Rhaenyra)

Prince Aegon Targaryen, called Aegon the Younger to distinguish him from Aegon II, is a prince of the Targaryen dynasty.
==Biography==
===Background===
Aegon is the third child and first son of Daemon Targaryen, and fourth child of Rhaenyra Targaryen. He is presently fourth-in-line in the succession to the Iron Throne, behind his three half-brothers from her first marriage to Laenor Velaryon: Jacaerys, Lucerys, and Joffrey Velaryon, though this position is disputed by the Greens.
===House of the Dragon: Season 1===
When Aegon is four, he travels with his family to King's Landing to defend the succession rights of his half-brother Lucerys to Driftmark. He and his younger brother Viserys are introduced to their grandfather/uncle, the ailing King Viserys I Targaryen.
After his uncle Aegon II usurps the throne, his Hand, Ser Otto Hightower, delivers terms to Rhaenyra, which include Aegon the Younger having a high place at court as the King's squire. Daemon, and later Rhaenyra, furiously reject this.

==Behind the scenes==
Four-year-old Aegon is portrayed by twin child actors Jake and Rory Heard.Davina Hart on Instagram: “How cool is it to be only 3 years old and have this on your acting cv! 🎬😎🥰💙💙 #twinactors #aegon #youngeraegon #redgun #leavesdonstudios…”
==In the books==
In Fire & Blood, Aegon was born in 120 AC at Dragonstone. He had dark purple eyes and pale silver hair. Queen Alicent took offense to his name, considering that she already had a son named Aegon, and believed that the boy's name was a slight intended by Rhaenyra to imply that her own son was more deserving of the Conqueror's name than Alicent's. Rhaenyra's son was called "Aegon the Younger" to differentiate him from his half-uncle, who began to be called "Aegon the Elder."
