My daughter was refused passport after being named after Game of Thrones character… I had to cancel £2k Disneyland hols
A GIRL of six was refused a passport because she is named after Khaleesi from Game of Thrones.
Khaleesi Holloway’s mum Lucy was told it broke trademark laws.

But The Sun approached the Home Office, which runs the Passport Office, and last night it said a mistake had been made.
A spokeswoman said: “We can confirm the application is being processed and apologise for the delay.”
Single mum Lucy, 38, of Swindon, Wilts, said: “Thanks, Sun. I’m so happy. It’s her dream to go to Disneyland.”
Khaleesi, or queen, was the title given to Emilia Clarke’s character Daenerys Targaryen in the HBO hit.
Lucy added: “I just loved the name.
“I call her Cally for short but she always introduces herself as Khaleesi Holloway Queen of Dragons.”
