She’s 10 now and says she hates it and just wishes she could have a normal name “like Skylar”
We had a big fight about it last night and i told her she’s being ungrateful and it’s a sign of respect. Now she’s threatening to leave the khalasar
I named my daughter “Donkey Kong” and she is the sweetest two year old you’ve ever met

D&D did their audience dirty by building up Danaerys as a good girl savior because she was a fan favorite, they knew she would go off the deep end and if they had any guts they would have foreshadowed that more instead of springing it at the end of the series.

I’m torn on this because on the one hand naming someone after a title from a fantasy novel also sets my teeth on edge… But, as I understand it, there is also a history of African-American people giving their children respectful titles - Prince, Queen, etc - as names as a subversive act in response to white supremacy. They may be called all sorts of things by white people but at least every now and again one of them will address your child as a social superior. I’m neither American nor black so I won’t claim to be able to speak on the topic but it does seem extremely cool to me.
