Íñigo García, rey de Pamplona

Íñigo Garcés was the eldest son of García Jiménez by his first wife, Oneca Rebelle de Sangüesa. His father was of "another part of the realm", and thought to have been some sort of ruler, and Íñigo may have succeeded his father. He appears with the royal title in the Códice de Roda, but only in a secondary reference, not in his primary entry. When the 905 coup d'état placed his younger half-brother Sancho Garcés on the throne, he or his family may have had a falling out, as one son was killed while other sons fled into exile.

He married a Jimena Velázquez, granddaughter of king Fortún Garcés of Pamplona, and by her had a daughter, Toda, wife of García Íñiguez of Olza, and four sons, García, killed at Liedena, and Jimeno, Fortún and Sancho, who took refuge in Córdoba.
