If you’re still too hesitant to name your children after Olenna Tyrell or Ellaria Sand – as more and more parents are actually doing – there’s at least one other way to prove your “Game of Thrones” fandom through the use of your unwitting child.
It would seem that more and more parents-to-be are staging “Game of Thrones”-themed gender reveal parties to announce the sex of their unborn babies, judging by social media. And while some still opt for the classic cake reveal (blue cake for a “khal” or pink for “khaleesi,” etc.), others take things a step further.

The online retailer behind Risen Son Creations tells Fox News that demand for her handmade gender reveal dragon eggs – which change color to red or blue when heated, and also closely resemble the eggs given to Daenerys Targaryen in the show’s first season – has risen by as much as 750 percent in the months leading up to Season 8’s debut.

One of the couples even announced that, in the event they were having a girl, the child would be named “Arya." (They did, and she is.)

And despite the inspiration for these reveals coming from a premium cable series that doesn’t shy away from violence, not a single reveal appeared to be nearly as tragic or controversial as some of the sillier reveals folks have shared in the past.
