Taking on a Hebrew name?
#2
A Noahide is free to choose a name that he or she wants, in any language, subject to any rules instituted by the ruling government on what can be used as a legal name. (For example, in France, people's legal names need to have official approval, and we hear occasionally of proposed names being rejected.) There is an exception within the Noahide Code, that a person should not be named or called by a name of G-d. (However, it is OK for a person to have the name Sha-lom, since that word also means "peace.")
