In fact, you could not use 鬮 for your name because of limitation called jinmeiyo kanji.

Jinmeiyō kanji - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

On the other hand, there is no limitation for reading kanji of individual name.

There is an increase in Japanese boys and girls who named with western pronunciation such as Mike(舞空), Kent(謙人/健斗), John(路恩). Of course I don't like this tendency, lol.

See this site.
DQN

You would find many western name given to real native Japanese, lol.
