It's certainly used to be inflammatory and simultaneously denigrate the people it's supposed to represent. It's, sadly, wrong. Anglo protestants are not the ones who brought about the concept of one to one name mapping, nor the most vigorous about insisting upon proscribed names.

One can go over to nominally catholic and gaellic France and find much more state control over accepted personal names[1] A name new to France has to be proven to exist, if its not an indigenous name in France. The are other countries with similar control over names some of which require names to be gender specific and unambiguous, in that respect.
