[Opinions] only in america....
to me it just doesn't wash.
but in Australia our naming styles aren't quite as out there as you guys yet. we are catching up for sure, but i think it'd be extremely bizarre.it sucks that names are associated with heritage though, because some names i truly adore are french, italian and spanish.most of them are just variants on english names however i find the spelling and pronunciations so much more glamorous and exotic.eg.
Vittorio instead of Victor
Vincenzo instead of Vincent
Alessandro instead of Alexander
Matteo or Matthias instead of Matthewpersonally i don't like Japanese names.
