The son of Ajātasattu is mentioned in the Canon¹. His name was Udāyi-bhadda, and it follows from the statements of the Ceylon Chronicles that he succeeded his father on the throne². This is confirmed in the commentaries³. The name also occurs in medieval Jain and Hindu lists, independent no doubt, both of them, of the Buddhist books⁴.
