Why Amerei Gets Nicknamed "Gatehouse" While Dany Doesn't get any such name.

Dany, 3 years younger than Amerei is far more promiscous than her and looks that she'll be raising her portcullis far more than Amerei ever did and yet she doesn't get any such name while poor Amerei is dubbed "the Gatehouse". Why? Is it simply because Dany, unlike Amerei, has the power to torture and kill people calling her such names and has shown that she's more than willing to use such power?

Dany keeps her sexual relationship with Daario a secret. The ghiscari public doesnt know about it. Amerei meanwhile was caught in the act. 

It's hardly a secret when her servants etc. know about it, and unlike the certain bits of unsullied, her servants tongues aren't cut off.

Gatehouse ami had a 4 some with some.stable.grooms as a teen that alone puts her above dany

Dany is called "the whore of Westeros" by Kraznys. The Titan's bastard claims that she looks like a Braavosi whore he fucked, and asks her if it was her.

There's no doubt that many more ugly things are said about Dany at her back. Specially by her enemies. But we don't get to hear them because we basically see her story through her POV, and most people won't be saying that out loud at her face.

The Customs Officer at Selhorys accuses her of every kind of sexual depravity.

In general, she's pretty forgiving of insults, as when Gael spits in her face.

- Ami is associated with Castle Darry, which is presumably guarded by a Gatehouse.  So there is a pun here that does not work in Dany's case.

- I don't agree that Dany is more promiscuous than Ami, judging, at least, by Ami's reputation.  For instance, Dany has never been involved in a threesome.

- Dany's promiscuity is not unknown.  I cannot find the quote at the moment, but I do recall (exaggerated) rumours about her sexual exploits.

people have more things to attack Dany with . so , despite the fact that she's called a whore among other things , her nicknames are usually about her madness , cruelty or bloodthirstiness . 

but Ami doesn't have much else to go by .

There are a ton of people at the Twins; the first  noteworthy thing an individual does will stick as a nickname:

 

- I sat with Ami at dinner tonight.

- Ami... Ami, is she the pretty one?

- No, that's Perwyn's half sister Roslin. Merrett's daughter.

- The fat one?

- No, Ami, you've heard about her, ...Gatehouse Ami.

 

Garlan Tyrrell explained this principle to Sansa when telling her his brother named him 'the Gallant' to save him from the indignity of an insulting nickname.

 

Dany is famed, and has plenty of names to identify her already. The only people that need to give her insulting nicknames about her sexual relationships are those already looking to insult her.

Poor Ami do not have 3 flame spitting and flying lizards and an army. So people can call her what ever they want without nasty consequences. 

I wish her to marry Sweet Robin so she can raise her portcullis and keep her gates open as much as she wants and if anyone talks smack about her, Sweet Robin would open his moon doors. Perfect couple.
