Perhaps it could work in Denmark, Norway, or Sweden? I should have specified I meant in a general sense, and it doesn’t have to be confined to just countries that speak a majority English. More in reference to Norway, since it’s a Norwegian name.
But I’ll agree, a lot of names are pretty bad in English, despite being perfectly fine in their original languages.
