re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

I'm almost positive it was Rhaegar and Elia with baby Aegon in that vision. If R+L = J, Lyanna would be near death after the birth...or on the express to death, anyway.
The many aspects represented by the title ASoIaF are what makes it so well-chosen. It could be about Jon Snow, the Targs and the Starks, the Others and the dragons, the sword Ice and it's eventual re-forging ( a very Tolkienesque touch if so) etc...
I think the title reflects the forging itself...people, civilization and the trials and betrayals, relationships and love...mostly that it takes these two destructive forces used properly to create steel, a substance stronger than the combined effects of both.
Goes back to Howard's Conan and the whole "mystery of steel"- we know GRRM a big fan - the truth is steel isn't power, flesh is power, but it takes steel to control it.
Something like that, anyhow.

I agree that the title is outstanding because it could mean many things.
So with the "dragon has 3 heads" prophecy that we hear in more than one instance does that give anybody hope that maybe fAegon is not a fake?
And if not who you got for your 3 heads to the dragon?
