Hi, the last thing we would want is to offend anyone. And change is simple, yet for the reasons I will explain, it is not the right thing as a matter of principle.

The data is the exact copy of names collected from 1990 US census:

These are real names of the real people - offensive or not they are real. We also have the names Adolfo and even Adolph which I am sure reminiscent of a dark character in the history. Yet, all in all, name of the people themselves should not be offensive, let alone similarity.

Is this an acceptable explanation which these names are real names? I guess if you could explain the origin of the names, this misunderstanding could have been avoided.
