Viserys

US Popularity Rank: 22106

Origin: German

Meaning: Wealth; Son of Otto

Viserys is a boy's name of a mostly mythical association. It's technically German, and means "wealth" or "son of Otto," giving it plenty of distinction already. However, in the recesses of everyone's pop culture brain lies the famed Game of Thrones franchise. Viserys is the Targaryen prince who fought tirelessly—becoming a tyrant along the way—to get his place on the Iron Throne reinstated. His ferocity and wicked mind was certainly his biggest claim to fame.
