What is your opinion on these names?

So.
I was studying and I got real bored. Thus, I decided to play a bit and make up names for humans.

I got names like this:
Perast Drobeta-Turnu, Anina Mako, Ada Kalan, Darda Grumshi, Arad Bataseck, and Dal Friyeza.

The thing is, I made up these names from toponyms I found on a map. Some names are edited a bit to fit English writing.

If you saw a person with a name like one of these, would you ever suspect it was made up from names of cities? Does it sound ridiculous? What about places you know of, for example Baltimor Tampa or Belfast Bonn?

Would you be offended if someone named a character (or an actual human) by the place you live in or know of, or would you simply laugh?

Can you make up your own names from some toponyms you know? (it doesn’t have to be a city. Toponyms are names for any geographical place.)
