You get into medical school according to your grades, not according to your names. If you do become a doctor, it depends on how well you study. And if you get a job at a hospital, well doctors are always in demand. I don't think you would be denied a job b/c of your name.

Therefore I don't get the argument "can't picture a doctor with this name". I am sure there are doctors with all kinds of names.

Whether a name is considered "ridiculous" or not, depends on the culture. There are many names which are popular in USA which I find "ridiculous".
