No, as opposed to all those shitty Klingon ships we've seen. Let's not get into that again, please. The lines have been drawn. Some people are okay with them (like you) and others aren't (like me). It is what it is.
Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

Sorry, calling it fake makes no sense to me. Shitty is one thing (I get that). Fake is another.
I never called them fake. Don't get mired in semantics. You know what I meant.
I'm a Vulcan, sir. I thrive on technicalities.
Also, what is the opposite of "real Klingon designs."

That is more descriptive, yes.
In this case, the colloquialism of referring to something that's "real" would be opposite of something that doesn't seem as genuine. Not outright fake - Maybe the difference between regular beer and "lite" beer. They are both beer, but when I engage the "toxic masculine" lever and grunt, "now that's a REAL beer" when I drink non-lite beer, as opposed to when I say something like, "this is some beer-flavored SODA!" if I drink a lite beer. They're both beer, technically speaking, but one is good (real) and the other is shitty.I'm a Vulcan, sir. I thrive on technicalities.

Hopefully this clears things up?
Somewhat.
To your point I hate the whole "That's a real ______" because it's as stupid a colloquialism as "I'm so mad I could just kill myself".
But, the point is well taken and I'll leave it at that.
Funny; I knew what @137th Gebirg meant and didn’t feel the need to overblow his comment. Maybe it’s just me.
And everyone knows that lite beer isn’t real beer. Or at least people with taste know.

I hate beer so no, I don't know.
Sorry, probably just my sarcastic kneejerk reaction to things like "real" whatever.
Your signature now needs Franklin's quote about beer is a sign that God loves us and wants us to be happy or whatever it was
I doubt Eaves would be working on it. They seem to have moved him to just the 24th century shows. He didn't work on DSC Season 2.
Who is the principal ship designer for DSC season 3?

Any of those three would be fine by me.
Would be great if we saw the Klingon and Romulan BoP's in a skirmish against each other, perhaps even deploying the first D7 prototypes.
No idea. Eaves doesn't have Season 3 mentioned on his page, so I don't think he's back. He has other future Trek projects listed, so if he was back in Season 3 I think it would probably be there along side them.
Season 2, I think it was Ryan Dening. He designed the Section 31 ships, the Hiawatha and D7 (with Scott Schneider, who was also part of Season 1). So it might be him for Season 3.

It would have been trivial to explain the DIS Klingon ships being the original ships stolen from the alien conquers of the Klingons. That would make them the finest, or most honorable, ships of the great houses given their history and almost mythical significance. Only lesser houses, corsairs, pirates, and civilians would use new builds. Then have most of those ancient ships destroyed through the war, which makes the new build imperial cruiser more acceptable.
That would have made those ships 900 years old. I don’t find that very realistic.
Klingons are notoriously traditional in mindset and love holding onto old designs for generations. While we've never seen any Klingon warships(at least in canon) that are that old and still being used I would never put it past some Houses in the Empire to have old Hur'q warships acquired when that species was run off Qo'noS, refurbishing them with modern weapons systems and using them to battle enemies. It would have been a great nod to DS9 and ENT canon to mention the Hur'q and establish that some of their old technology was still in Klingon hands many centuries later.
