I live in Germany and it's true that a lot of people nowadays give their children names from different cultures, but that trend is actually declining. The big in thing right now are apparently Biblical names like Noah and Elias and German ones like Konstantin and Joachim.
I think many people realised (mainly through the media) how low class names like Jacqueline, Kevin and Michelle sound to the broad public. I think it's just narrow-minded. Should I ever have children they're either going to be named Daphne or Alaric. Shoot me.
Edit: I just realised Alaric is actually Ancient Germanic. Woohoo. I got lucky.

I'm glad to hear that.
I'm not going to shoot anyone.
