Well, it may depend on where the person would otherwise be psychologically. I think there are ways of being that are messed up, and the wrong name can at least make that worse. It may be that only a small percentage of "Joy"s would be psychologically harmed.
If a name is the worst mistake a parent makes, then the kid will probably be fine anyway.
