Good. I can't imagine any child appreciates growing up with a name like that.

At least Pokemon names have a fun background.

Now imagine all the girls named Khaleesi after Game of Thrones. Especially after her character arc finished. That wasn't even her name, it was a title. They're literally just named Queen.

I have had students or known kids named Princess, King, and Legend. Charleigh Brown. Atilla Hunt. Harley Quinn. Their name just becomes the collection of phonemes you use to address them. It’s funny when you see it, then you don’t even think about it anymore.
