This is an interesting topic that you brought up! i know a lot of people who actually hate their name so much that when they grow up, they actually change it. and some cant go through the hassle and stick to it for life and pass it on to their kids for a second name! parents need to take this more seriously, i mean why would they want to do this to their own kids? plus translating names is a whole different thing, there are names in every country and language that have wonderful meanings but when translated into english , probably sound funny!
