I don't have a problem with it. It only bothers me with very religious names like Jesus, Christian, Mohamed, etc. After all Rachel, Sarah or Elijah are hardly only used by Jews, nor are Sven and Linnea used only by Swedes.

ETA: I'm not Jewish, but as a Catholic I don't mind other religions/atheists using Saint's names etc. (apart from the above mentioned examples).
