Why Targaryen, not Martell? Just curious. --Gladiatus (talk) 15:05, April 22, 2014 (UTC)

Because she's Elia Targaryen. It's about how people adress them. Mesmermann (talk) 15:54, April 22, 2014 (UTC)
AWOIAF does name its article on her "Elia Martell" though...--The Dragon Demands (talk) 19:23, April 22, 2014 (UTC)
            Well, after this season I believe it should be Elia Martell. Targaryen was never used as her surname. 68.235.73.134 02:18, June 2, 2014 (UTC)Oberyn 
Same as we don't call Call Cersei "Baratheon". JagoAndLitefoot (talk) 21:52, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Given that AWOIAF calls her "Elia Martell", and how prominently Oberyn called her "Elia Martell" in "The Mountain and the Viper", I suggest that we rename this page back to "Elia Martell". Yes, much like Cersei not being called "Baratheon", the Martells consider themselves prestigious enough that it isn't out of keeping that she might be better known by her maiden name - of a proud, independent Dornish ruling House.--The Dragon Demands (talk) 16:00, June 22, 2014 (UTC)

Agreed.--The-Boy 16:02, June 22, 2014 (UTC)
