No good catch for you to have realized that this was significant enough to start a topic highlighting it. I started my own topic because yours emphasizes the SotC angle, which isn't significant to my revelation.
Icecream:
Oooh, first thought on hearing Fitz's name was that means bastard (I only know from a different series FitzChivalry as a name) but didn't give any thought to it. Ooooh new SotC theory, good one guys. Or Hendrick's bastard child :D
Vairelome:
If Fitz's mother conceived and gave birth to him while unmarried, and then later married a physically abusive man, it would both make a perfectly plausible addition to his backstory, as well as set up a rather dark joke for Jim to make later, once someone found out that Fitz had been "beaten like a..." :(
Another angle to approach this from might be to consider who named him "Fitz." Would it have been Baldy, or a name he was given earlier in life? Considering that Jim has said the name is relevant, I think it's likely that the namer must have had some insight into the reasons for conferring the name upon him, as opposed to it being a happy accident of name and circumstance.

So, the next Knight of the Cross, then?
