Yes except no.
The name on the list is a diminutive form of my name.
My last name is a common first name, but almost never a last name.
My middle name is my mom's last name.

I have two first names, and one last name and my last name isn't even my last name.

John or Jonathan will never go away.
It appears in many derivations in all western cultures.

It is also a Biblical name.

As long as Christianity maintains a stranglehold in America, it'll be a popular name.

It's very much a Biblical name.
But that doesn't have anything to with America.

Ivan and Sean are both ways of saying John.

If you took the female name as a personal name and the male name as a family name, most of those combinations would work.
