The so-called Wildling Prince was the son Mance Rayder and his wife Dalla. Under wildling custom he will not be named until his third year. He was dubbed the "Wildling Prince", "the Little Prince" and "born-in-battle" by the men of Stannis Baratheon and the Night's Watch. After Dalla died he was given to Gilly to nurse. By the design of Jon Snow the boy changed place with Gilly's babe. To protect him from Melisandre he was placed under the care of Gilly and Samwell Tarly and sent to Oldtown. Gilly thought of naming him Aemon Battleborn or Aemon Steelsong, when he grew, in honor of Maester Aemon Targaryen. [1]
