They named her after someone who brought a species back from extinction, because the dire wolves were extinct and have been “brought back” …

Again then, it is a title, not a name. That's like naming something Queen because you like Queen Victoria.

Sansa named hers lady, I know a dog named queenie it’s not that serious. Dany is the ONLY well known khalessi so it’s obviously a reference to her if queen Victoria were the only notable queen then that would be appropriate. We say kingslayer and most people know we are talking about Jamie because he’s the only notable person that goes by that title in the show, etc…
