Re: Question about names and cultures
Now I see your other question clearly- I think it's because places like Germany and France etc. retain their culture and some European countries have naming laws to protect it! America is the barbie doll of the world- you can do (be) what you want to do / (be) haha.

Naming laws! Oh, that is a good point. Of course it would be nearly impossible to have naming laws in the U.S. and I'm not saying that I'd want any, but I suppose if you're going to live in a country where there are so many different cultures living together and (hopefully) mixing, at least a bit, it would be nice to not be shackled to English and English appropriate names. Bit of a dream there, I think.
