I think that it's too harsh sounding for most American ears plus the fact that it sounds like "tar can" makes it not so appealing. People in the U.S. would most likely go with Tarquin rather than Tarkan. I could imagine Tarquin being used in Australia or New Zealand (and maybe even in the U.K.), but I don't think that it would ever become popular in the U.S.
