A John or Chad is a colloquialism for certain types of men. I've met countless men named both and never heard them complain about sharing a name with these slang terms. There are countless other examples in English and other languages. Amazon coopted Alexa. Apple, siri. I've met more than one person named Isis. Unfortunately language is still a rough tool. We name things from mathematical proofs, to sea slugs, or even groups of people with certain identifiable characteristics, arbitrarily and sometimes capriciously. Ultimately those effected find a way to adapt to an environment that's coopted one of their identifiers under a new definition in the collective lexicon. Trying to fight it usually just makes things worse.
