Supporting data: a while ago, a German study showed a heavy bias amongst teachers against children with certain names, among them Dennis, Chantal, Jaqueline and (evoking the most extreme bias) Kevin. While these may be completely neutral in the USA or France, they're not traditional German names and typically chosen after movie or sports stars (Kevin allegedly first appeared in Germany after a certain movie came out, while at the same time British football player Kevin Keegan played in the Bundesliga). And that is something typically done by uneducated parents, while educated people prefer biblical or historical namesakes.
