In my company's large Chinese branch there are many strange English names in use by my Chinese colleagues.

There are both women and men named "Snow".
And other inanimate objects, like "Sky", "Wind", "Stone", "Dream", etc.

One guy also named himself after a character from Warcraft.
My favorite is someone who took the name "Roentgen". Yes, after the X-ray inventor, weird...

Then there is the guy named "Tonny", because there was already someone else named "Tony" with the same family name.
