In less than four weeks, the final season of Game of Thrones will be within our grasp (I can’t believe it myself, but I assure you that it’s true; I wouldn’t joke about such matters.) And you know what that means? Now the fun begins. At least, it does for the geekiest of us who love to speculate and hypothesize about what may be coming. With the running times recently revealed on the schedule, the episode titles will be coming any day now. Before they do, why don’t we give it our best shot with our predictions? Come with me!
In previous years, Watchers on the Wall hosted a survey in which our readers could enter their suggestions for what that year’s titles could be. Understandably, it was much easier when there were books in which our guesses could be based upon. That road map for the show is long gone, yet what we have now instead is the certainty of an ending.
Do you have an evergreen title up your sleeve that the show has been so thoughtless as to never include? Now’s your last chance! Have you ever thought of the perfect name for the final episode, or for the battle against the dead, or for Cersei’s inevitable demise? Well, now there are only six episodes left, and all of that is probably happening! Despite the utmost secrecy in which season eight was filmed, our guesses may be more on point than they have been in years, just by virtue of this being the ending. My point is that I foresee, for example, a lot of “A Song of Ice and Fire” and “A Dream of Spring” predictions for the final few episodes from you guys… and this time they will probably be right.
If you need help with your titles, please understand that informed speculation carries with it mild spoilers. Feel free to speculate blindly, but in that case skip the spoiler-tagged section and jump ahead to the final paragraph before heading to the comment section to make up your titles. You only need to know this: six final episodes, six titles. As for the rest of us, let’s be considerate and use spoiler tags when discussing any reasoning for our predictions that are based on spoilerific set reports or casting news.
Let’s go through a rundown of what we know—or think we know—of season eight.
Episode three will be entirely based around Winterfell and the battle between the living and the dead. It was directed by Miguel Sapochnik, of “Hardhome” and “Battle of the Bastards” fame, and it’s been lauded as the longest and most elaborate battle in cinematic history. It’s also the longest Thrones episode ever. Point being, it’s a big one.
Of the fourth episode we know very little, though a scene was once described that involved Brienne and Jaime, among others, fighting side by side against the undead. This means the Battle of Winterfell doesn’t end the White Walker threat. David Nutter, director of the first two entries and this fourth one, shot some King’s Landing scenes that only seem to fit here, as Jon was seen south and parleying with Cersei. Also, Theon must try to save Yara at some point, though episode two seems as good a fit as this one.
Episode five, the penultimate entry, is also directed by Sapochnik. That alone tells us there may a lot of action, though not as much of it as in episode three. Where will this action take place? In King’s Landing. An enormous city street was built for this setpiece, and it suffered heavy damage from dragonfire (blue or orange flame, we don’t know.)
The series finale, written and directed by the showrunners Benioff & Weiss, has been under more secrecy than any other episode, understandably. We don’t know anything about it, though the return of the Dragonpit, with much of the cast involved, could fit here, if it doesn’t in the previous episode. Even if we knew anything, I’d predict just as many “A Song of Ice and Fire” and “A Dream of Spring” guesses as I do now.
We reported on more details, but these basics may help you with your predictions.
As you may have noticed, this time we’re forgoing a formal survey. Instead, whenever episodes titles are revealed (usually not all at once), we will point out if a popular prediction turns out to be right, or if any of you plucky outliers who went against the grain guesses a title correctly. In such a case, your prize will be the knowledge of having been right and the adoration of the masses. Don’t let it go to your head.
#ForTheThrone
S08E01 – The Long Night
S08E02 – The Night is Dark and Full of Terrors
S08E03 – A Time for Wolves
S08E04 – The Golden Company
S08E05 – The Song of Ice and Fire
S08E06 – A Dream of Spring
I practiced some titles on some other threads… Here’s my latest go at it…
Some are less inspired than others, but I like some of these…
1) Homecoming
2) Dragonglass
3) Not Today (or “Not Tonight” may be more appropriate)
4) A Golden Hand
5) Broken Wheel
6) West of Westeros
Episode 1: Winterfell
Episode 2: We Do Not Sow
Episode 3: The Long Night (only reason I could see this not being the case is because the prequel show might get this name… of course, that doesn’t mean both can’t share).
Episode 4: A Time for Wolves
Episode 5: Hear Me Roar
Episode 6: The Song of Ice and Fire
Least confident about 4. I do think “The Golden Company” could be in there somewhere. “A Dream of Spring” as well.
Episode 1: The Golden Company
Episode 2: Son of the Dragon
Episode 3: Ice and Fire
Episode 4: The Last Hero
Episode 5: A Dream of Spring
Episode 6: The Song

Ser Travis,
I also like Valonqar for a title. It doesn’t mean anything in the show but it would keep with their usage of other titles – The Ghost of Harrenhal or The Broken Man – neither of which were in the show but were featured as inspirational titles.
We haven’t had the Lannister words “Hear Me Roar” as an episode title. Maybe if Cersei does set fire to Kings Landing we can get that title.
1) THIS
2) IS
3) A Song of Ice and Fire
4) IT
5) Y’ALL!!!
6) A Dream of Spring.
I’m going to borrow from other people for these:
Ep1: Winterfell
Ep2: ???
Ep3: The Long Night
Ep4: ???
Ep5: ???
Ep6: Ice and Fire
The ones I listed I’m pretty sure are mostly accurate or close to. For Ep2 they really could do anything. For Ep4 I was leaning towards something to do with Gold (Jamie’s Hand and the Golden Company being of importance in this episode). For Ep5, I was possibly thinking of a title relating to Cersei and Euron … such as “The Lion and the Crow” or something along those lines … or if we want to borrow another book title then “a Feast for Crows” since well it is a pretty awesome title and seems to fit pretty well.
1: the queen in the north
2: the prince that was promise
3: the long night
4: the night king
5: a song of ice and fire
6: a dream of spring
1. The She-Wolves of Winterfell
2. The Golden Company

Sébastien gauthier,
You so win this entire thing!
(Okay, maybe this is not useful!)
1. Winterfell
2. Ice & Fire
3. The Long Night
4. A Time for Wolves
5. Lightbringer
6. A Dream of Spring
1 – Together
2 – The Promise
3 – The Long Night
4 – Falling Snows
5 – Ice and Fire
6 – A Dream of Spring
1 – Because the word will be spoken enough by Jon or Davos, convincing everyone in Winterfell to side with Daenerys, and Cersei with the GC and Euron
2 – For the promise Theon did to save Yara, and the reveal of Ned’s promise to Lyanna
3 – No need to explain, this will literaly be a damn long night !
4 – Jon’s retreat and the WW bringing snow to the south
5 – The NK in KL ? Climax maybe involving a bit of wildfire and clash between fire and ice magics
6 – Seems the only good name for this episode
Sadly, “Home” was the title of season six episode two already 😉
I like that one a lot!
1) Winter is Here
2) The Golden Company
3) Battle of Winterfell
4) Hear Me Roar
5) The Trident
6) A Song of Ice and Fire
Tryptych,
I like your “Winter Falls”
801- Winter is here
802- Truth
803- Battle of Winterfell
804- no idea))))
805- Ice and Fire
806- Dream of spring
I don’t have any good guesses for the first five episodes besides the final one which cannot be any other than one of these:
A Dream of Spring
Dreams of Spring
The Dream of Spring
A Song of Ice and Fire
The Song of Ice and Fire
Cleganebowl (jk)
I can’t see D&D make up a better title unless it’s something GRRM told them and it is only relevant once we’ve seen the first five episodes of the season.
S08E01 – The Winds of Winter
S08E02 – The Iron Price
S08E03 – The Song of Ice and Fire
S08E04 – The North Remembers
S08E05 – The Age of Heroes
S08E06 – A Dream of Spring
I didn’t follow filming spoilers, so I’m not sure if certain content is known for certain episodes so it’s hard to say. I feel good about only two guesses…
803) Battle of Winterfell
806) A Dream Of Spring
Sébastien gauthier,
f****d
1 – The Third Head
2 – The Fist
3 – The Long Night
4 – Company
5 – My Sun and Stars

Zig,
THANK YOU for reading Luka’s note about spoilers.
If only everyone did.
Che
Just to say I read your nice post on the other thread again and made a more specific response on the foreigner issue. We still disagree but I did not want to just wander off.
1. Night Gathers
2. Hear Me Roar
3. Winter Fucks You Hard
4. A Dream of Spring
5. The Prince That Was Promised
6. The Song of Ice and Fire
(At least five of those were serious suggestions.)

802: The Golden Company
803: The Long Night
804: Queenslayer
805: The Last Dragon
806: A Dream of Spring
Che,
Oh yes, Lightbringer. Great choice! That is one of those simple, one-word titles that could mean so much in the show.
1. Crypts Of Winterfell
2. Time For Wolves
3. The Great War
4. A Dream Of Spring
5. The Irone Throne
6. A Song Of Ice And Fire
I really want “Dark Sister” as one of them now too, but I don’t know which one…
There’s so many great possible titles and only six episodes…Since many are supersized, it would be great to have a chapter 1 title and a chapter 2 title… but I think we’re stuck with 6.
1- A Song of Ice and Fire
2- Good as Gold
3- The Long Night
4- The Side Of The Living
5- The Great Other
6- A Dream of Spring
1) A Time for Wolves
2) Iron Born

5) Blackfyre
6) A Song of Ice and Fire
1 – A Song of Ice and Fire
2- Good As Gold

Oops!! I thought it was a season 7 title and actually went send checked the episode titles to confirm. I am going to blame being distracted by my three tiny hooligans and trying to multitask making their dinner and posting on WOTW at the same time.
My new title suggestion, which is totally random:

How soon before episodes air will they release the title? I’d think they’d want to keep some of these under lock and key for as long as they can
Chilli,
This is my favorite list so far.
1 – A Time for Wolves
2- Blood of the Dragon
3- The Battle of Ice and Fire
4- Azor Ahai
5- The Mad Queen
6- A Dream of Spring
Other solid candidates could be “Winter is Here,” “The Long Night,” “The Lion and the Stag,” “Hear Me Roar,” “The Pack Survives,” “The Fall of Winterfell”
Hear me Roar seems to be a given since we’ve already had Fire and Blood as well as Winter is Coming. Probably Episode 5. I’d be really dissapointed if it won’t be, since Starks, Targs and Lannister were the three main houses from the very beginning until the very end.
For ep. 3 I’d kinda like Winter fell, that is, if Winterfell is about to fall.
“A Dream Of Spring will” is almost definitely ep 6.
I tried to come up which episode titles that haven’t been suggested already (like “A Dream of Spring”, which seems like a popular choice).
Night Gathers
The Warrior of Light
The Dragon Princess
Dark Sister*
The Reluctant Queen
Soldiers
The Lord’s Chosen
The Iron Throne
The Seven Kingdoms
Seven Hells
The Narrow Sea
The Kings of Winter
A Thousand Times
Secrets
Brothers
A Large Shadow
The Ink is Dry
The First Men
Salt and Smoke
Words are Wind
King’s Landing
The One of Many Faces
Not Today**
Greywater Watch
Holdfast
A Sacred Vow
The Last Dragon
When Mountains Blow
Queen of the Ashes**
Lots of C*nts
* Edit: I see that Tron79 already suggested this. I’m sure others will be mentioned before I post this.
** Maybe these were used already too.
I don’t think “Hear Me Roar” will be an episode title, but of course, I could be wrong. It just sounds so cheesy.
I do, however, think that “The Long Night” would be a solid suggestion for episode 3. Maybe, “And Now My Watch Begins” or “The Night Gathers” could be another for the same episode.
“A Dream of Spring” and “A Song of Ice and Fire” both have to be there too, I would think.
Episode 1- Winterfell
Episode 3 – The Long Night
Episode 5 – A Song of Ice and Fire
Episode 6 – A Dream of Spring
Still thinking of ideas for episodes 2 and 4.
OK, I wrote this back in a January 13th post (and actually found it!) and I mostly am still feeling those titles, so I’m sticking with them:
Episode 1 – Winterfell – The first episode was called “Winter is Coming.” This would be a play on those words since winter is here, thus winter fell (as in snow fell). Also, the title of the first episode of last season was “Dragonstone,” so it could mirror that as in another major homestead. And it’s pretty obvious that a huge chunk of the episode has got to take place at Winterfell based on the characters left in the show and where they were and/or headed in the S7 finale.
Episode 2 – We Do Not Sow – Getting pieces into place and what-not, this episode will likely feature Euron and the Golden Company, as well as Theon and the Ironborn going after Yara more heavily than any other episode simply because it makes the most sense time-wise. The first episode is getting everything set up, the third episode is when the action has to start happening since we only have six episodes and that’s literally the half-way point of the season.
The show has used the words of the Houses before as titles; it would be a good time to use one here, and these are the words of House Greyjoy. Plus, they would fit the Night King’s wave of destruction and inability to plant life, they only destroy. Ooh, and if Cersei has a miscarriage, it would have an added layer here as well! Now, they could go with “The Golden Company,” but I don’t think that’s all encompassing enough.
Episode 3 –
A Song ofIce and Fire – I don’t think they’ll go for the full “A Song of Ice and Fire,” but I can’t imagine they can’t not go for at least a partial use of the book series title at some point before the end of the television series. If the big battle begins here between the Dragon Queen, her children and the living against the Night King, his Ice Dragon and the dead, I can see them using this title for this episode. Hmm, on second thought… they actually might use “A Song of Ice and Fire” as in the cries of the dragons. In fact, I’m changing it to that. So, Im going with two options here: “A Song of Ice and Fire” (OR alternatively) “Ice and Fire.”Episode 4 – Hear Me Roar (OR alternatively) Ours is the Fury – Pulling another alternative title-guess again. We have to deal with Cersei and King’s Landing. Cersei took the throne as the Queen of Robert and the mother of his two “sons.” With her downfall truly happening (or beginning to happen) here, the words of House Baratheon might just might apply. Also, if Gendry were legitimized by Jon or Daenerys, it could also ironically signify the Baratheon’s fury roaring back to life. (I just don’t think he was brought back solely for “fan service” reasons or only as Arya’s potential love interest. He’s going to play a bigger, more Baratheon-y part, I think.) Speaking of roaring… yes, there may be irony also in that it could be the final roar of the Lannister dynasty. Thus, I could see either the Lannister or the Baratheon words as the episode title.
Episode 5 – Lightbringer – Basically whatever is up with the whole Azor Ahai, Nissa Nissa, The Prince/Princess that was Promised happening here. I mean, it’s gotta happen, right?! If they hadn’t said that it could be “prince” or “princess,” I’d go with “The Prince That Was Promised,” but since they did make it ambiguous, I don’t see them revealing the answer in the episode title.
Episode 6 – The Dream of Spring – They changed “A Dance of Dragons,” to “The Dance of Dragons,” so they’ll probably do the same thing to GRRM’s proposed final book in the series title, “A Dream of Spring.” I can’t really see the final episode being anything other than ADOS or TDOS though.

What is Dead May Never Die has already been used (season 2 episode 3). I like the rest though.
Mr Derp,
Thanks! I realized it almost right away and made a change.
Ten Bears,
Ooooh. I love Voice in the Flames. That’s a good one.
Episode 1: Winter is Here
Episode 2: The Golden Company
Episode 3: The Long Night
Episode 4: We do not Sow
Episode 5: Ice and Fire
Episode 6: A dream of spring
Noojan,
I think you are very close. Maybe a small order change…
1) The King who Knelt
2) Beneath the Gold, The Bitter Steel
3) Azor Ahai
4) The Promise
5) Queenslanding
6) A Song of Ice and Fire
Since “Hear Me Roar” is so corny, I would think that “A Lannister Always Pays His Debts” could be more of a possibility regarding Lannister-themed episodes.
TeeJay,
“Winterfell is about to fall?” What tv series are you watching?
You all realize that HBO/Dan & Dave will be reading these guesses don’t you?
I would like one of the episodes to be named Aeg.
Also, Winterfell, Kings Landing, Dream of Spring, Long Night are a must.
Ok, I jumped to the bottom because I’m avoiding all speculation based on filming spoilers so here are my guesses:
1. Winterfell (Just because I like if this would come full circle – an echo to the series premiere)
2. The Long Night (Last season we got “Eastwatch as the name of the title before the characters actually went to Eastwatch so there ya go)
3. Ice and Fire
4. The Bitter Steel (or Blackfyre)
5. Break(ing) the Wheel
6. A Dream of Spring
1. Homecoming
2. The Lion and the Kraken
3. Winterfell
4. The Queen’s Betrayal
5. The Long Night
6. A Dream of Spring
Others I have been considering…
2. A Lion’s Oath
3. The Long Night
4. The Mountain and The Hound
5. A Song of Ice and Fire
Not really anything to these, besides episodes 2 and 4 which I think we’re kind of in the dark about. I think Cersei will get married in episode 2 and Jaime will give that speech about fighting for the living… so it could have a double meaning if it’s A Lion’s Oath. I’m not sure if Cleganebowl will happen in episode 4 (I think it’ll probably happen in episode 5 but if that’s a big battle it wouldn’t be named The Mountain and the The Hound), but that sounds like a good name for a title.
Mr Derp,
Ha ha! Very good. And your Episode 6, “Sour Cherries”, has that b_____s___t connotation to it – as well as an underhanded knock on the segment of the fandom that’s going to bitch and moan about the ending no matter what. (Or is that sour grapes?)
1. A time for wolves
2. The Prince that was promised
3. The war for the dawn
4. The last Hero
5. The Song of ice and fire
6. A dream of Spring
I am right. You’re all wrong. That is all. 😋
Roberta Baratheon,
Thanks! There seems to be a consensus on three or four titles. I’m trying to come up with different ones. (Who would’ve predicted “The Door” or “Book of the Stranger”?)
Here’s one I’d like to see: “Frozen Fire.”.
It’s got the ice and fire duality; it’s another name for Dragonglass; and it could refer to undead Viserion’s blue flame too.
WATCH PARTY GAME IDEA! Who dies
I wanted to share a game i will be playing at my watch party guessing the living and the dead come seasons close
1) Print out official cast photo panoramic of everyone at Kings Landing for guests
2) Have everyone mark an X over the cast members they think will die this season and sign their name on the form. You could even give bonus for correct episode.
3) at the close of the season reward the winner.
Episode 1 Winterfell
Episode 2 The Long Night
Episode 3 War for the Dawn
Episode 4 A Time for Wolves
Episode 5 Hear me Roar
Episode 6 A Dream of Spring
dieslafa,
Winds… is already S06E10
The North… is already S02E01.
King’s Landing is my guess for Ep 5: we have at least one king on a dragon and most probably we’ll have to by then – they have to land somewhere.
For The Throne should be one of the titles.
Ten Bears,
Just like me: queen of the ashes.
I choose that title because it could refer to two queens. And if KL will burn maybe they both are too blame.
And I always liked Varys quote “He would see this country burn if he could be King of the ashes.”
change king too queen, and it could be something that could happen in season 8.
Most of the things I guessed were already named so I’ll throw some dark horses into the mix:
The Fiery Hand
The Last Targaryen
The Last Dragon
The Dragon’s Egg (get it???) would also be great if they hatch new dragons somewhere
The Prophecy/Little Brother(s)
Betrayed/Betrayal – though I think this would be more likely for a song, kind of like “No one walks away from me” was a song title we all tried to figure out when the tracklist went live
I like having Gold in the title to hint at various things – mainly The GC and another Golden Shroud for Cersei’s offspring
The Woman I Love -would apply to a lot of things but mainly Jamie dying in Brienne’s arms
The Wolf and the Stag/The Dragon and the Stag
Bittersteel
The List
But yeah, most of these are throwaways because I think we’ve probably got at least 4 titles right already and one or two will be things we could never guess.
Weeell, I’ve been thinking about the episode titles for quite a bit to be honest, along with the official poster (if there is any) they are the thing we’re still to get that excites me the most excluding the actual episodes.
From the few things we’ve been told about the last season and my notion of how it will all end, I think these are my closest approach to the episode titles:
S08E01 – “Winterfell“.
S08E02 – “The Heir” or something referring to the Greyjoys or/and Jon’s identity.
S08E03 – “The Battle for the Dawn” if not, “The Long Night”.
S08E04 – “The Dwarf, the Cripple and the Mother of Madness” Really don’t know about the fourth one. I certainly would love to see this one, as I suppose it’ll be something regarding the Lannisters.
S08E05 – “The Song of Ice and Fire“.
S08E06 – “The Dream of Spring“.
1) King in the North
2) Legacy

6) A Dream of Spring
I was wondering if anyone remembers how hyped up the “Beyond the Wall” episode was from season 7? I know that episode was one of the big battles for that season but was not received that well with all fans. Was it hyped by the people involved with the show at all? Compared to the battle of the bastards or the upcoming battle at Winterfell (episode 3)? Also how hyped was the Spoils of War episode? I wonder if they knew it was not going to be a big hit, compared to other battles.

I actually prefer Beyond the Wall to BotB. I remember Liam was full force hyping the BotB. He was the biggest Season 6 hype man.
Fatemeh Eizadpanah,
What no Arya POV???
I do like the idea of Jaime’s POV list of titles. His arc is one that really connects with me. Even when he did horrible things to my favorite characters I understood where he was coming from. Ned after all was holding his brother (from his POV) and he put Cersei first above all others (sorry bran). But he will be filling up the pages in the BOOK by the end of his arc. So in no particular order.
The Book
Sir Jaime
On My Honor
The Saphire Princess
For the Living
The Faceless Man. (Just a guess. No spoilers. This would be like the Door twist)
The Lion King 🙂
Spen,
As far as I remember, the wole hype was about the Loot Train Attack (Spoils of War). The battle beyond the Wall was mostly kept under wraps despite of all the leaks.
Everyone here thinks E3 is going to be ‘The Long Night’. I disagree, I think the prequel show will get it.
Instead I hope E3 gets “The Battle of Winterfell”
and E6 gets “A Song of Ice and Fire”.

Episode 1 – “Winter is Here”
Episode 2 – “The Long Night”
Episode 3 – “The Great War”/“The Battle at Winterfell”
Episode 4 – “Hear Me Roar”/“The Mad Queen”
Episode 5 – “A Song of Ice and Fire”
Episode 6 – “A Dream of Spring”
Walt,
I like those episode titles
Jack Bauer 24,
Personally I think Beyond the wall is underrated. Yes there were some problems with timing of dany’s arrival but I think people need to take it (that problem is there since season 1)
The scenery and character moments were great in BTW. Spoils is my top 3 of season 7 but Beyond the wall (place 2) and the dragon and the wolf (1) win it for me.
I did my best not to read the other proposals:
A time for wolves / Winterfell [reprise] (why not again, it’s already a long time ago and it’s a good title)
Dragon and the lion / [The golden] company (could even fit for Jon-Jaime in Winterfell, Daenerys – Tyrion or Cersei and Jon/Daenerys)
The long night (of 82 minutes!)
Ice and Fire (especially after reading your spoilers before)
Hear me roar / A time for wolves / Dragon and the lion
A dream of spring
I just thought it was weird that Dany was mute the entire time. No yelling or screaming when Viserion went down and when Jon was tackled into the lake.
Ok, I’ll give this a shot..
1 – Promise
2 – Dragonglass
3 – Winterfell
4 – The Long Night
5 – A Time for Wolves
6 – A Dream of Spring
1. The Blood of the Dragon
2. The Lion and the Cracken
3. The Long Night
4. Lightbringer
5. The Battle of Ice and Fire
6. A Dream of Spring
I think shock. I think she couldn’t comprehend what just happened. Her dragons were invincible creatures that just got killed. And after she understood she had no time for emotion she needed to get the hell out of there.
Edit of episode title. Somehow I cannot let go of “family duty honor” for episode 1 2 or 4.
S8E1: Winterfell
S8E2: Ice and Fire or The Falcon and The Wolf
S8E3: The Long Night
S8E4: Ten Good Men or The Drowned God
S8E5: The Wheel or The Gate of the Gods or Dragon’s Shadow

Tron79,
“What no Arya POV???”
_______
Let’s get on it! 👸🏻
I really, really like the (fake?) leaked titles from a while back:
Episode 1 – Winterfell
Episode 2 – Two Queens
Episode 3 – The Long Night
Episode 4 – A Dream of Spring
Episode 5 – Aegon’s Conquest
Episode 6 – Ice and Fire
The titles for 1, 3 and 6 seem pretty much a no-brainer in those exact spots, with “A Dream of Spring” looking very likely as well.
1- The wolf and the dragon
2- The prince that was promised
3- Winterfell
4-The long Night
5- Azor Ahai
6- A Dream of spring
Ten Bears,
Episode 1: my brother my uncle.
Episode 2: dark sister
Episode 3: Not Today
Episode 4: the wolf and the dog
Episode 5: Queenslayer
Episode 6: west of Westeros

These are my guesses.

Last episode: A New Hope. 😉
Tron79,
I have no clue what Arya’s gonna do this season that’s why I wrote my titles for 5 main characters in TV show Jon, Dany, Tyrion, Jaime and Cersei. Arya’s gonna be reunited with Jon in the 1st Ep that’s what’s promised by D&D. She gonna fight in the 3rd that we saw in the trailer. That’s all I know she’s gonna do. Her list wold have been so incomplete.
Quinton O’Connor,
Aegon is perfect for Episode 2, although I don’t recall them ever having just a name as a title.
Actually I think her list will be all checked off! That’s what I’m looking forward to!
And I’ll add one more title for her. “The List”
1. Ayra . Dany the hound and the winterfell orgy
2. winter & willy warmers
3, Battle of the bulge
4 Traitors and golden balls
5 Dances with Dragons
6 The spring and the screw
My unscientific guess:
S8E1 – Winterfell
S8E2 – A Lannister Always Pays His Debts
S8E3 – The Long Night
S8E4 – Queen of the Ashes
S8E5 – Lightbringer
S8E6 – A Dream of Spring
1. A Time for Wolves
2. The Long Night
3. The Great War
4. Azor Ahai
5. Empire of Ash
6. A Song of Ice and Fire
1. Hands of gold
2. Blood of my blood
3. A sword in the darkness
4. Little brother
5. Queens landing
6. Stormsend
dark sister,
oh, not blood of my blood
2. blood of a dragon
1. The three eyed Raven
2. Crypts of Winterfell
3. The Great War
4. The Living and the Dead
5. Blood of the Dragon
6. A Song of Ice and Fire
Episode 1- Winterfell
Episode 2- The Golden Company
Episode 3- The Long Night
Episode 4- Valonqar
Episode 5- A Song of Ice and Fire
Episode 6- A Dream of Spring
All I know that I will be pissed if the last episode is not called “A Dream of Spring”. That’s the only title I’m certain of.
I have some ideas, phrases etc from the books, but no idea where to place them.
Titles: Winterfell, The Long Night, Warrior of Light, Heir to the Iron Throne, A Time for Wolves (GRRM original title for the last book :O), Valonqar, A Song of Ice and Fire, Age of Heroes, The First Men.
That’s all I got for now.
dark sister,
Ugh, here I am trying to post the Spiderman double meme but alas, I am not as adept at embedding photos as I thought I was. Instead :
658VsXoAo3ovC.jpg” target=”_blank”>https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/mobile/000/023/397/C-658VsXoAo3ovC.jpg
All I can think of is for episode 5 or maybe 6 :
The Dragon and the Lion
1 the lion and dragon
2 whatcher on the wall
3 son of ligh
4 the thrue air
5 valerian steel
6 fire and blood
1 – Home
2 – The Things I do for Love
3 – The Night is Dark and Full of Terror
4 – Family, Duty, Honor
5 – The Lord of Light
6 – Welcome Home my Queen or Now it Ends
firstone,
Home has already been used.
I just got back from a work trip so I’m behind and just quickly skimmed. I have had six titles that I think are really good possibilities and I do see they’ve pretty much been covered. I don’t think I can come up with anything off the wall… hmm…
E1: “Fireside”
New one (for me) to refer to reunions, coming home and lots of intimate, personal conversations near the fire. Also a reference to The North coming to terms with Daenerys and joining or agreeing to fight on the side of ‘fire.’
E2: “Promises”
Just thought of this one now… Sh*t, ‘promise’ has also been included in guesses. The word may fit though referring to broken promises such as Cersei’s and revealed promises like Ned’s to Lyanna.
E3: “Winter Falls” or “Winterhell”
Staying with this one since I think it fits well. It’s a callback to the series premiere title of “Winter is Coming,” as winter has been mentioned as coming since the very start and now the one bringing it is going to fall full force. Most think the living are defeated, so Winterfell falls as well. Maybe they’ll give Hot Pie credit and call it “Winterhell” instead.
E4: “Queen’s Landing”
Hmm, I see this title has been mentioned too. It does seem appropriate for several scenarios possible.
E5: “Azor Ahai”
Just to stay away from the promised prince title I’ll toss this one in with others that may have. Dialogue from Mel during the season could give this more sense.
E6: “A Song of Ice and Fire”
I’m stuck on using the overall book series title for the final episode as it’s also wrapping the GoT series with “… and this has been the story of ASoIaF.”
Ten Bears,
Great comprehensive list! Some of my favorites – The Ink is Dry, Seven Hells, Voice in the Flames, Burn Them All. And Night Gathers, which was the only non-obvious choice (for ep 2) in my original list.
I will toss out a few more for the brainstorming…
It Is Known
For the [good of the] Realm
Protector of the Realm
The Hand
The Hand’s Justice
Wolfpack (I assume someone already said The Pack Survives)
Which begs addition of…
Leader of the Pack (and now he’s go…ne)
Others have mentioned most of these already. But here are my thoughts.
Episode 1: Winter Is Here
Episode 2: A Winter Rose
Episode 3: The Long Night or For the Dawn
Episode 4: A Time for Wolves or Family, Duty, Honor
Episode 5: The Valonqar and the Queen, or Blood, Gold, Love,
Episode 6: A Dream of Spring
You all do realize what we’re doing here? Last season they withheld titles until very late… We’re throwing out suggestions like mad right now. They can look at these and pick whatever from all these suggestions that fit.
Clob,
Possible…but we are a month away.
I would guess that D&D and HBO have these titles covered a long time ago – maybe since they discussed the endpoint with GRRM. This is the end point of a huge project for D&D…
So far they have been great at picking episode titles – they seem to have someone really creative that does this for them & HBO. Not to be mean, but the suggestion lists here (inclduing mine) are repetitive and not very inspired or inspiring. Boring actually. I suppose one or two are OK but mostly dull stuff.
Father is watching / The voice in the flames
Cat of the crypts / Balerion the Dread
Madrugada Eterna
Sang Real / That’s not me
Burn the bastards / The things I do for love
It’s all I ever wanted / Bittersweet
1. The Return
2. The Prince who was promised
3. The Long Night
4.
5. A Song of Ice and Fire
6. A Dream of Spring
Totally speculative, no spoilers:
E01: And All The Nights to Come
E02: The Hour of the Wolf
E03: Lightbringer
E04: The Song of Ice and Fire
E05: Valonqar
E06: A Dream of Spring
Rather late but whatever:
1. Winterfell
2. The Golden Company
3. The Long Night
4. The Many Faced God
5. Queen of the Ashes
6. A Dream of Spring
Some people are backing off theories (perhaps a couple of such theories are real interesting too…) about returning characters in forms of whigts or undead.
I read about the reason why Arya looks so scared in the trailer’s scene in Winterfell crypt.
Some suggest of her mother Catelyn became a WW, some others of all her ancestors trasformed by the Night King himself. I spotted even a theory about Littlefinger’s return as an avenging whigt.
My question is, maybe isn’t GOT trasforming itself in The Walking Dead??
1 – A Song of Ice and Fire
2 – Family Duty Honor
3 – The Night is Dark and Full of Terror
4 – The Things I Do For Love
5 – Mother of Fire and Blood
6 – Welcome Home my Queen
My guess:
Ep. 1 Winterfell
[Daenerys arrives in Winterfell, Cersei makes new friends, Theon finds the truth]
EP. 2 The Lioness and the Kraken
[House Lannister joins House Greyjoy]
Ep. 3 The Realms of Men/The Long Night
[The Dead march on Winterfell]
Ep. 4 Hands of Gold
[Cersei welcomes a special guest]
Ep. 5 King’s Landing
[Arya returns to King’s Landing]
Ep. 6 Dream of Spring
1) death
2) more death
3) megadeth
4) the long death
5) a song of death and fire
6) a dream of death
Episode 1 – Family Duty Honor
Episode 2 = The Bastard, the Spider and the Snake
Episode 3 – Chaos is a Ladder
Episode 4 – A Song of Ice and Fire
Episode 5 – Mother of Dynasty
Episode 6 – Now it Ends
Before it’s too late to speculate
Episode 1: The Lone Wolf
Episode 2: Blood of the Dragon
Episode 3: King of Winter
Episode 4: The Things We Do For Love
Episode 5: Queen of the Ashes
Episode 6: A Song of Ice and Fire
Episode 3 will undoubtedly be called
“The Living and the Dead”.
Chilli,
Fire and blood is already an episode name.
Episode 3: Battle of Winterfell.
Episode 4: The mad queen
Episode 5: King Snow/King’s justice
Episode 6: The song of ice and fire/A dream of spring
Episode 1 – Winterfell (already confirmed)
Episode 2 – The Rightful King
Episode 3 – The Long Night
Episode 4 – Exodus
Episode 5 – Ice and Fire
Episode 6 – A Dream of Spring
2. A Time for Wolves
3. The Long Night
4. Lightbringer
5. A Song of Ice and Fire
6. A Dream of Spring
So what about that spoiler implying Jaime and Brienne in the fourth episode. Was it a mistake?
so, most of us were convinced the night king wouldn’t get defeated at episode 3. I see references to lord of light past ep 3 as well. don’t get me wrong I really liked this season. it’s just that after reading these I feel like we were hugely misdirected about what is important. maybe that’s why all the hate.
