Different cultures have different thoughts about that. Your cultural standards are not necessarily universal.

But that doesn't mean that culture has to accept your decision.

You asked if this would be accepted, and you got your answer. It is too bad it was not the answer you wanted.

Like some cultures, some religions are more strict than others. You can choose to be whatever religion you want, but in some religions improper activities are punishable...so your values may not be accepted by that religion. I think it is a two-way street.

I come from a French Canadian catholic culture.
As a teenager, I decided to change religion, because I didn't beleive the Christian one... Is that a crime?? A silly thing! No, it's called freedom !

If want to name yourself "Table" then feel free! But that doesn't mean I have to think it isn't silly or strange.

Since Yoko Ono was born in the US her name was (and is) written in katakana. She is Japanese with Japanese blood and Japanese parents who has a katakana name. Japanese names in kanji are reserved for Japanese citizens.

I want to gave a kanj. By respect, not the same thing here!
But maybe I don't have the same vision of respect than Japaneses do.

I think you do not have the same vision of respecting another culture as Japanese do, so I would drop the kanji. If you want to write your name in Japanese, use katakana. That is showing respect.
