Help[Facts] Re: Sansa
in reply to a message by Perrine
Many names used in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones) are elaborations or new spellings of common English medieval names:
Eddard - Edward
Jon - John
Robb - Robert
Catelyn - Catherine
Rickon - Rick, Richard
Joffrey - Geoffrey
Jaime - Jamie, James
Margaery - Margery
Tommen - Thomas
Melisandre - Melisande
Lancel - Lancelot
Sansa was surely inspired by Sancha / Sancia, which was a common name among European royalty during the Middle Ages.
