Oh yeah, I know someone who named her kid Khaleesi. Oh dear.

But let's be honest if you're going to call your kid Khaleesi that kid was always going to grow to be a stripper. Poor kid. She is going to be in high school before she learns how to lean to spell it.

Just to be nit picky: Khaleesi was a title, like queen or chieftess. The character was named Daenerys Targaryen. So they would technically have not named their child after a character.

Admitting you're wrong on the internet is so rare. And that's sad to me.

I still think her response is a bit shitty…

Why do you need to be “qualified” to talk about a character arc??

Like, it’s not some obscure term that only film critics know or something only they get to have an opinion on… Seems like some unnecessary gatekeeping.

It's Twitter so everyone is required to be unnecessarily rude
