A woman was left “devastated” after her daughter’s passport application was rejected because she was named after a Game of Thrones character.
Lucy, 39, from Swindon in Wiltshire, said the Passport Office initially refused the application for Khaleesi, six.
Officials said they were unable to issue a passport unless Warner Brothers gave permission because it owned the name’s trademark. But the authority has since apologised for the error.
Poor kid gonna grow up and watch the show where she was named after right before the final season.
There’s a final season? I’m pretty sure they decided to wait for GRRM to finish the books as it would be silly to just go off the map and start making things up, as that could go awfully wrong.
I sure hope they don’t rush it just because they want to go do some other projects!
That’d be disastrous.
No way in hell HBO would allow such a profoundly cultural phenomenon just go to shit. That would be insanely shortsighted for a company that takes such pride in their filmmaking.
My name is alarmingly close to one of the characters (my mate who was reading the books when they first came out thought it was hilarious), but at least I’m not the newsreader Jon Snow.
Imagine the number of times people have smugly said to him, “you know nothing!” Ina bad Scottish accent.
Ygritte was meant to be Scottish?
Well, no, but the accent was.
First season is heavy enough isn’t it? Life lessons:
Well I think the lesson is that after all the hardship she still fights her way to the top. That is at least inspiring. Then the last season happened.
