That's probably why Mass Effect and Dragon Age went with the characters' last names, so you could choose any first name and not have a problem. There's so many names to record, it's surprising they did as many as they did, even with all the fake ones.
Madden NFL used to have player names and team names recorded so they could say, for example, "Ismail runs in for the touchdown!" But they just stopped doing either. Not the commentary is so generic (and not always accurate, but that's a different point) that it sounds like the guys in the booth don't even know which teams are playing, much less who any of the players are, or what's going on down on the field.
What does the robot say when your name isn't listed?
