With few exceptions all of these titles are found in pagan descriptions of the mother goddess. There is no queen in heaven. Mary is not the mother of the church, ever vigin, and etc.
The Bible never gives any dead human being the title of queen in heaven; the Bible never refers to a queen in heaven except in Jeremiah where the prophets states those who serve the queen in heaven spite themselves. The King of Kings is the Bridegroom of the Body of Christ (the ekklesia), which means if there is a queen in heaven it is those who are alive in Christ.
