'''Barahir''' was the grandson of [[Faramir]] and [[Éowyn]]. He may have been the son of [[Elboron]].


There is a single mention of a son of Faramir - apparently his only child - named [[Elboron]]<ref>[[The Peoples of Middle-earth]], [[The Heirs of Elendil]]</ref> and it seems reasonable to speculate that this was Barahir's father. In this case, Barahir would perhaps inherit the titles of [[Steward]] of [[Gondor]] and [[Prince of Ithilien]]
