2Rhysand’s Surname Is Still Unknown
Rhys’s Last Name Is A Point Of Contention For The A Court Of Thorns And Roses Fandom
Something of a functional joke within theA Court of Thorns and Rosesseries and fandom is how very few of the characters ' last public figure are confirmed ( which is not the case for the cast ofThrone of GlassandCrescent City ) . Feyre ’s last name is Archeron , while her friend Lucien ’s is confirmed to be Vanserra , but that is about all the fans know for certain . Given his prevalence in the story , people are peculiarly funny to know what Rhys ' last name is .
In the bonus chapter forA Court of Silver Flames , Rhys and Feyre are discussing possible names for their child , and they both imply that his last name is kind of ridiculous . If citizenry require to read into this , they can interpret it as Rhys being indifferent about his house name when his father was just another in a foresightful parentage of corrupt High Lords , and he was close to his female parent .

There are a lot of things about the place that Rhys does n’t wish , specially in the grave environment of the Night Court . However , he never believe trying to encounter a agency out of his heritage .
Rhys has a plan for the Night Courtand get going work towards it from day one . He promoted all his friends to the highest - ranking position in his court because they were the most qualified when many of the noble in the Court of Nightmares were not happy to see them in office . This optimism and drive to make his motor inn , if not all of Prythian , a expert spot is one of the most of import parts of Rhys ' character inA Court of Thorns and Roses .
