Esquire points out that George R.R. Martin indicated the Jon Snow secret revealed in the "Game Of Thrones" Season 6 finale, "The Winds Of Winter" as early as 2002. A Q&A with George R.R. Martin in 2002, two years after the third book in "A Song Of Ice And Fire" was released, revealed what "The Winds Of Winter" did in "Game Of Thrones" Season 6.
"A Song Of Ice And Fire" fan asked George R.R. Martin this question: "Since all of their mothers died, who gave Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Tyrion Lannister their names?"
"Mothers can name a child before birth, or during, or after, even while they are dying," George R.R. Martin responded to the "ASOIF" fan. "Dany was most like named by her mother, Tyrion by his father, Jon by Ned."
Esquire cites a Reddit post on how very subtly George R.R. Martin manoeuvered "The Winds Of Winter" bombshell for "Game Of Thrones in that "A Song Of Ice And Fire" Q&A.
