It's odd to use nowadays, but for me it wouldn't take to long to figure out it would mean 'friend' (like most -win names). In Dutch we've got Wijnand for example. I knew a guy named this and it never really bothered me it started with Wijn. I also knew someone who named their child Chablis (= a kind of wine) and that bothered me more.

Besides, when I look at names of Dutch people I know/have known personally, Wine doesn't seem that bad anymore:
