Yeah they're mostly all European... I didn't think I'd have to say where they are from... I just asked what people thought of them...

If you just list them like that, people are not going to know they're from different languages - they are natually going to assume that they are misspelled. Many aren't even separate names, just another language's version of the same name (e.g. Jakub, Marek, etc).

Look at all the comments. All most people said was that the spellings suck. That's pretty much all you're going to get if you don't let people know that the spellings aren't wrong, just not English.
