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.
I’m prepared to believe this, so won’t be fact-checking it.
Oh are you a journalist
I sometimes pretend to be one at home. “Hold the front page!”, “this story is too good not to be true!”, etc.
