    Not inherently, no but you should never pick a name from any sort of media until their character arc is complete. Khaleesi was arguably fine until the character became an incestuous genocidal maniac.

    That is now a major part of what people remember about the character. Just like you probably wouldn’t choose to name your child Hitler now, the name is linked with a certain individual and their actions even though the name had nothing to do with it.

    When you pick a specific name or word from fiction that doesn’t otherwise exist, that link becomes even stronger, because that’s the only source.
