This is actually something I've run into in my day to day. I changed my full name when I got married because I've hated my name for my whole life. My old name was very cute and very white, and I frequently got questions about the beloved children's show I was named after. It made being a working adult pretty hard. What I didn't expect was that my new name is heavily assumed to be Latino. I was going for the Italian poet but a few people have been confused to find an absolute honky in the interview.
