I get naming your kid after a cultural figure, but it drives me nuts that so many people believe her name is khaleesi.

Plenty of people might actually think that, but Prince, Queen, Princess, and different variations in different languages are common enough names already. It's possible plenty to most of those people just like the title and know it's not her actual name. Not directed at you, just some people might not realize that the phenomenon was popular before GoT existed.

Particularly when the spelling of Daenerys already had a major "millennial parent" aesthetic.
