Sorry that's obvious in retrospect.
My problem with your argument is that words are "easy to spell and pronounce" because they are common and people have experienced them before.
When I said people are unable to recognise names they haven't heard before I mean that literally. They try to coerce it into one they've heard before and either succeed and call you something random or require you to repeat it 3 times before they are convinced they're not just miss-hearing it.
The only way to get something easy to spell and pronounce that is rare would be to compound common forms. Frankly this is exactly what the middle name does.
That said JoHadRon is globally unique (at least according to google) and has useful short forms. I may change my name.
