Is Magadon the only demon spawned child of Mephistopheles? Are there any other children of note? Also does Asmodeus have any famous or reknowned offspring in the forgotten realms?

Don't know about Realms specific, but Asmodeus has a daughter, Glasya. Grazzt I can easily imagine festooning the mortal world(s) with half-fiend offspring. Appart from that, I can't think of any, though I'm sure one or two have cropped up in novels over the years.

Might be fun to brainstorm a bunch of Realmsian demon/devil spawn! >:)

Thats what i was thinking exactly! there are so many possibilites with this topic. So many different demon spawn could be created, each one unique and stand alone.

SPOILER:There is a scene in one of the Twilight War novels in which Mephistopheles possesses a man and then says lusty things about the man's wife, which I think hints at an intent to attempt impregnate her with spawn.

-Of Mephistopheles, I can't think of any Forgotten Realms specific characters, but I would find it highly unlikely that Magadon is the only one- I'm sure there are plenty of unnamed people out there who he had a hand in siring. In general, there's plenty of Demons spawn in the setting.

Sfena of the Iron Throne is a daughter of Glasya and possibly Mammon

As Hawkins noted. Also, I believe it was mentioned in passing, by Mephistopheles himself, that he has sons other than Mags. Don't have time yet to check the exact passage, but I think it's Shadowrealm.

Every beginning has an end.

Look at the history of Narfell and its kings. One can only surmise that there were MANY such offspring in Narfell.

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail
