The answer

If the meaning of the mentioned name does not contain any -prohibited elements and is not exclusive to non-Muslims, then there is no impediment to naming with it. There is no harm in naming with foreign names whose meanings are known and do not contain any prohibited elements. It is, however, preferable to choose names that are good, clear in meaning, and familiar.
