Um well, I think this thread belongs in the LOTR forum, you might want to restart it there, or better yet chack there to see if there is already a thread about this. Cuz if there is already a thread abut it, an Admin. will close this one, and if there's not already one, they'll move it. So you might as well save them the trouble. It's Ok, you're new & learning! ;)

Aragorn son was called Eldarion, hardly anything is known about him, his name has a meaning that has something to do with the eldar, he had a few nameless sisters though.

There is almost no information on Eldarion. I had to write a lot about him in a Fourth Age RP, and I had to invent most of it. :(:(

Whaaat! Aragorn and Arwen such bad parents not naming their daughters...? Shame on them! :D

Eldarion means 'son of the Eldar', it's in Quenya. Eldarion took the throne in IV 120 and his reign evidently came to an end about 100 years later. That's what I guess. Talking about his sequel to the Lord of the Rings: The New Shadow (which never got beyond the first few pages), Tolkien said that the story was supposed to refer to the end of the reign of Eldarion. So there ya go. The New Shadow took place one hundred years after the death of Elessar. It features (if you didn't know) the plot of a 'Satanic' [Morgothian? Sauronian?] cult to overthrow the King, and Tolkien said the story would be a '"thriller"' about the overthrow of the plot. But as it refers to the end of Eldarion's reign I wonder much what on earth happened.
