Hope she kept her top on.

This is not 'The Times' but the American magazine 'Time'. And, as others have said, it's not a proper record of actual baby names.

For that, for the USA, see:

for England and Wales:

My favourites are Brienne and Daenerys. I considered Brienna and Damaris which are similar in sound

Who was that to, Squoosh Grin

Oh that was to Khaleesi on Cbeebies! Don't think some of her antics would be suitable for the nippers.

If I met a Khaleesi I'd just want to boom 'KHALEEEEEEESI' a la the lovely Jorah Mormont.

It's funny how Khaleesi has taken off. It's not a name in the series, it's a title, so rather like calling your daughter Queen or Empress or something. There are some nice names in GoT. I like Sansa and Arya. Brienne. Dacey.

It's a bit of a gamble choosing a GoT name. They might be great now but in a book's time they could be shagging their son and slitting throats everywhere they go.
