Guess John is still the most popular name from the show... But after the ending I'm sure Bran will replace it...
steve77777777
anyone named after a TV show character:
Yellowdart49
Reek
djstatika
Lol
lifeinabathtub
I wonder if any kids are named Cersei
mkyner
There are some poor kids going around today named Robert.
ridureyu
Joffrey Ramsay Frey is a perfectly innocent name.
RickHalcyon
I feel this pretty hard, my 2nd daughter will be born any day now, and we've settled on "Rey" for her MIDDLE name.
VorpalHalcyon
Its pretty dumb to be legit concerned about this. People are unique even if their names aren’t.
Dav0sSeaworth
My dog is named Rhaegar :-) call him Rhae for short
Solkanarmy
"this is my daughter, The Hound"
BadDragon1183
I'd make fun of people who mamed their kids after GoT characters, but I named my dog Arya from The Inheritance Cycle.
GadenKerensky
More powerful than the GoT Arya, but elves are OP in TIC. Magic in general, kinda OP.
Ulthirm
It read like he was trying to limit it but like... When your magic is literally "can you invent a good enough poem to do your task but also
Ulthirm
is very specific to optimize usage in Latin and Anglicized Greek" how much can you limit it right.
Ulthirm
I mean in the 3rd or 4th book (I guess spoilers) a magic user just drains all the water from a dude's body. It kills him, but not because
Ulthirm
he was weak, (but he was) but because he didnt have time to make a Sonnet for it.
BadDragon1183
Yea... In an interview with his editor, Christopher Paolini said in the upcoming novel set in Alagaësia he was going to nerf the magic.
GadenKerensky
Really well thought out, yes. But also super OP. Being able to kill a dude by pinching a blood vessel in their brains? Crazy. And super easy
BadDragon1183
Also really easy to become a serial killer and to literally never be caught.
GadenKerensky
Partly why there was so much talk about creating something akin to a regulatory body or some such. To keep magicians in control.
TheRabbitMun
Nights King*
stonebrood
all these fools naming their child Khaleesi like it's a fucking name and not a title
OppoQuinn
Imagine naming your kid "Queen"
AwkwardKaffs
To be fair, Queenie used to be a pretty popular name, as is Regina (which was queen in Latin).
iHateNicolasCage
Or North
duramater1
My poor little Theon was born mid second season. Damn!
sarkonas
If you name you child after a unique-named TV-show character, you are already a shitty parent. Doesn't matter if it's a good show/character
FlorenceArabia6
Not gonna lie, they had us in the first half
LookingLikeASnack
I'm naming my son Hitler after that wonderful aritst-turned-politician. He's so charming and down to earth. A real go-getter.
LookingLikeASnack
I'm sure the history books I'm reading about him are going to end with him being a true hero.
Kightzeareau
I would not regret in naming my daughter " The Night King". I call her TnK for short. Pronounced Tee-N-kee.
MAYTechnique
School Kids: There she goes, ol Tinky Winky head ass
bilateralunsymmetry
Tanika is actually a name
ratfaceddog
Is that how you read that?
bilateralunsymmetry
Yeah
rustyshackilford
Waiting tables like 4 years ago, I had an awful couple that had a kid named Ceirsi.
someragrets2013
I named mine Maisie. I’m pretty happy with that decision.
k98aj01
Rule number 1 for me: never name after the living, or after fictional characters who haven’t finished their arc.
Zamboner85
The Night King is a children's fable who fucked an ice witch
Agrotara
I named my daughter Aria...and people ask me why I spelt it like that since it's from GOT. First off, no. It's from the Vegas hotel Aria.
NoFather
Night King is going to be an awesome name.
BrotherQuinoa
Well to a lot of fans, he was the hero so don't feel too bad.
TwoSpeedTony
Estoyp00ping
I’m naming my first born Dickon
NachoPete
Estoyp00ping
JustTawnee
If it's a girl will you name her Dickoff?
DeepTrollin
Imagine fraternal twins, dickon and dickoff
MAYTechnique
The older of the two would be Biggus Dickus. I'd find quite risible
TonyTonyChopp
How will you make sure they marry someone called Incontinentia Buttocks?
Valarauko
You mean second born.
PitchSp0rks
Sheprador
I’m naming all my kids Dickon.
Dav0sSeaworth

Come on man, spoilers. Its like those people that said Darth Vader was Luke's father, or that Jesus came back from the dead. Damn spoilers

I mean it’s not that bad.
Ireallyreallylovebread
We thought about it for one of ours. I like Edward, but loathe Twilight. Eddard has a similar feel
blurb
Plus Eddard can still be called Ed for short.

I wonder how many kids are named Daenerys?
Akaranger
My coworkers kid is one
janedove
My dragonborn Skyrim character is called Daenerys. Guess I need to change my play style...
GeneralGinger531
Ah yes, to a more fire magus build, I believe? Or perhaps a dragon scale armor tank?
CompositeArmour
"quicksaving..."
everyusernameistakeneventhisone7
I would still be ok with it.
IAlwaysUpvoteBirdies
Yeah it's still a pretty name.
TheHawkRules
Until she starts acting the same way and you realize that Ol’ Musky and his Not a Flamethrower is the main thing you wanna avoid.
gumbum8
I don’t know why I’m taking the time to comment but I agree, they’re cool names
CGriffo124
Season 8 is not canon
DubiousByDefault
But season 6-7 is?
TheManInsideMebyDrTobiasFunke
If they had taken two more full seasons and fleshed out the same story it would have worked much better. The story itself was solid.
ialwaysupvotecows
My cousin named her first daughter Daenerys... goes by Dana
PhilanthropicMisanthrope
Can you see her trying to avoid being bullied in school? "Were you named after Daenerys". "No, I was named after...uhm...Danona Ryder."
Undrave
There's plenty of kids that were named Anakin so...
ChainmailleAddict
No excuses. We knew Anakin was Vader for a long time.
Undrave
Yeah just saying that being named after a bad guy isn't new
PrincessLesa
Actually had an Anikan wait on us at Texas Roadhouse the other night. Looked like a total bro with ALL the hair product. Personally, 1/2
PrincessLesa
I’d tell people to call me Darth.
Helveticus
I bet there’s more than one ‘little shit’ running around!
jBugVillain
One is too many.
LadybugJuju
Too many
ThishasbeenmyTedTok
HA fuck the kids, imagine how many PETS are named after the show
Straga27
I've met at least one person who named their daughter Daenerys. This was maybe two years ago.
Desertwanderer
My question is why name your kid after a character who 1. Has an abnormal name and 2. Straight up murders people in the show. B4 s8, too.
PardusXY
More are named "Khaleesi" which means "My parents are morons"
hellifiknowwhatsgoingon
that's her "title" right? i mean, people have named their kids "King" or "Princess". not that its a better choice, but its not unheard of.
PardusXY
It’s like naming your kid Legolas...
Threadnomancer
I personally know of two
Monfreid
You have weird friends...
Threadnomancer
Yes. Not my friends though just trashy people
iwearlittlesocks
She's still bad ass. Better than naming your kid crystal
Spookadook
Hey I have a good friend named crystal! Works the pole like a pro.
Aardvarksneedlove
Unless the middle name is Methannie
Akaranger
Where is this from. I thought I made up crystal methannie
IAmJacksRagingBileDuct
Lots of angry millennial couples who now know they named their kid "Fantasy She-Hitler."
Ulthirm
Ah so its like High fantasy Nazi General-Anakin?
RXJ235231
I wonder how many girls are named Ramsey

I had a kid whose first name was Seven. I wish I was kidding.

I’ve had two Seven’s as students
kowala88
There was a kid named Seven my my daughters swim class. Mom was...interesting

That's probably a 'The Hate U Give' Reference.

Star Trek Voyager
cpnbeeb
Too many.
Lvl28Larvitar
Apparently 560 Khaleesi’s and 163 Daenerys’s in the US in 2018 alone
OfficialCommentFromCorporate
The kinda irks me as it’s a title. But Queen Latifa’s been kicking ass for decades, so what the fuck do I know.
Isthe4thtimethecharm
Yeah but language is fluid.
AngeloMonharti
there are only two languages change my mind
thatiswhyyoushoulddoityourself
So... French and Klingon.
Zurumon
Well Sarah means princess, so language.
ilhares
Yeah, but her name isn't "Queen Latifah", it's Dana Owens.
bobziIIa
That’s just with that exact spelling. But over 3000 with a slight difference in spelling.
fairybug
At least they can go by Lisa or Danny, and maybe people won't know.
Tiamat6
68 in New Zealand.
iHateNicolasCage
Someone needs to take one for the team to get to 69
OliverMcDairyQueen
I always 69 in New Zealand... well actually I 69, because that one is upside down.
PoopholeAintALoophole
Tis what middle names are meant for!
PoopholeAintALoophole
Well, that and a fallback if your first name sucks... Got a friend named Francis Seth. Guess which one he chooses to identify with?
nothingtodoandalldaytodoit
As the prophecy foretold.
Lawodis
I mean the Khaleesi ones have no right to be surprised. It's the title for the matriarch of a horde that just rapes and pillages all day
undeadlemur
I know one of them sadly
Kaplar
A lot of people I know who are big fans(like my parents) only know her as khaleesi and wouldn't be able to tell you her name. Bit annoying.
Percevaus
Do they just not listen to the show? Or not watch the later seasons?
Kaplar
I don't know. It's difficult to talk to them about the show because "you know I'm bad with their names" when I mention someone like Davos1/2
Kaplar
, Jorah, or Melisandre(I have to say red woman for them to understand) they don't know who I'm talking about. Frustrating. 2/2
trollprozac
My daughter's name is Abcd.
trollprozac
7 people have short memories lol
ZOMGNO
I know a kid named Khaleesi
gynonurseifixyourladybits
Patient of mine named her daughter Arya last December. Haven't heard any other character names yet.
RandomTurd
I actually like the name
ElbowDeepInASnake
Arya could also be associated with the inheritance cycle.
zephen
Love that series
CommisarFuklaw
That poor child
ratfaceddog
She gonna kill OP’s kid someday.
TheArthenium
Arya is a common boys name in the Balsamic Republic of Iran.
floyd007
Its a pretty common name in India
SaltyEsq
To be fair Arya wasnt unheard of before this show. Hard to differentiate now though :/
probablyshouldbedoingwork
A friend named his daughter Aria, like from an opera, and gets all annoyed when people pronounce it like Arya. Lol what'd he expect?
Delathi
Could also be a 'creative' misspelling of Aria
gynonurseifixyourladybits
Nope. She was an admitted huge fan of thrones. Intentional.
Delathi
Fair enough. Plausible deniability if Arya had gone to crap in the last season though.
furrycattesticles
She's got a lot to live up to
TheS4ndm4n
She is noone
gynonurseifixyourladybits
If only she could have utilized that gift in the last season. I realize I'm coming off as bitter, but I'm still pissed.
TheS4ndm4n
Just wait for the next book. It's coming soon*
fiddlemyhiddle
Same here man. It had so much badass potential with that gift.I can’t stop thinking about all the ways they could’ve easily made it better:(
