What is the regnal name of Edmund Pevensie?

The story behind the answer

Edmund Pevensie’s regnal name is King Edmund the Just. He receives this title after becoming one of Narnia’s rulers alongside his siblings.

Edmund first enters Narnia in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, where the White Witch tempts him with enchanted Turkish delight. He betrays Peter, Susan, and Lucy, but later recognizes the Witch’s evil and repents. Aslan’s sacrifice saves Edmund from the consequences of his betrayal, making justice and redemption central to his character.

Edmund rules as one of the four Pevensie monarchs during Narnia’s Golden Age. His title reflects both his fair judgment and his moral transformation. He is not known as the Peacemaker, the Valiant, or the Magnificent; those invented titles can sound plausible because Narnian kings often have descriptive epithets.

Edmund later returns to Narnia in several adventures, including Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and The Last Battle, where he remains loyal to Aslan and helps defend Narnia.
