A good friend of mine is Japanese and his name is Joe his daughters names are Lori, Lena and Lisa. I don't think there is anything wrong with it, if you have at least a connection to Japan in someway.

I'll agree with that. it's fine if you have a very strong connection it just bothers me when people do it becuse their lives revolve around anime...

They're actually names from books, not anime. :) My favorite author is Haruki Murakami.

I love anime but I'd never use a japanese name unless I had strong connections to either someone with a Japanese name or I'd have at least been there.
