    If you take the meaning of the names into account, it would go well. Sadly because bigots don’t like research, it might be a breeding ground for bullying.

    My name for example has an English name and a Spanish-derived surname, which is not uncommon here in the Philippines.

    The only real requirement for a name is that it is catchy and not too embarrassing.

    Normally a name is something meaningful, it becomes a person’s identity, and it also becomes their first impression.

    So when your child hears the their name, what kind of perception will they have of themselves? When their peers and teachers hear the name, what kind of impression will them have of your child?

    Ultimately, will your child find a space where they will be accepted for the name they are given? If you give them a name that doesn’t fit with neither the culture and upbringing that you can provide nor the culture and upbringing that their environment can provide, then that’s not really doing them any favours.

    So if your entire family and your spouse’s family has abrahamic names, but they have a Chinese name, while attending school with predominantly Greek children then they will have some trouble identifying not only with their family but also the institution.

    At least where I live they’d assume your parents are from that region at least, but it wouldn’t be a big deal anyway. Plenty of names from all over the world already.

    You can name your kid whatever you want with some exceptions. John and Karen naming their kid Mohammed is not illegal lol. Nor is Abdel naming his kid Mads or Eric.

    I don’t know about different scripts though.
