Comment on I wonder how many US babies have been named Donald in the last few years and may live to regret it.

  Like Cesar, or Roy, or Regis, etc.

  It's even worse, because my understanding is that "Khaleesi" doesn't actually mean "queen", but would more accurately mean "concubine/wife of the king/khal". I believe the queenship is only implied after the death of the khal.

    Not really implied by the term itself, since after the death of the khal the khaleesi are basically exiled to the capital. Daenerys only brought greater meaning to the title when she used it in her conquests.

  Donald means something like “ruler of the world,” so not far off.
