The women and girls in Game of Thrones are from all walks of life and have very different fates throughout the series. Some are incredibly strong in the face of brutal hardships while others are meek and obedient, with plenty of personalities in between. Their names are centuries old and carry stories of love, hope, deceit, bravery and magic with them. The last name of the character, is in parenthesis following their first name (quite a few weren't given last names in the series).
