It's interesting how intuition for the normalcy of names depends heavily on personal context. I've gotten a "it's obviously a Jewish name" from someone in NYC.

It's interesting how intuition for the normalcy of names depends heavily on personal context. I've gotten a "it's obviously a Jewish name" from someone in NYC. I had never heard either the first or second name and had no clue, but it might seem like I was feigning ignorance to someone from a place with more people from that culture. Only one of Joan and Fons is familiar to me, and I've never seen them together until now. Now I know of two instances and learned there's a whole experience I'm not privy to where these two occur together often.
