    Usually, people outside the anglosphere don’t think about how an American is going to read their name or if they’re going to find it funny.

      I assume it goes both ways - i.e. there are other countries who laugh at some American names due to how they sound in their local language. It’s just human nature - whether it’s just for the humor, or to ridicule & act condescending will depend upon the individuals involved.
