And hes regent of shornhelm so surely he can name whomever he wants to the kingsguard/phoenixguard like cersei did i think with osmund kettleblack?) (@Septimus: By whom? That is not how it works. He is not the monarch so they are not sworn to him. He has no power over them. Cersei was Dowager Queen/Queen Mother, so she was still a monarch even if officially Joffrey held the power. Also it was not her that officially named him a Kingsguard. It was Joffrey, as only a King can name his own Kingsguard. She got her son to do it.

@Nelthro: Already replied to that. The guards denied.
