I think most people with Spanish names that run around in English-speaking circles do know that Gringos (*) don’t grok their names.

When it actually comes to filling in fullname attributes of author elements, most people will actually look at the result (in particular if they know that their names are not well understood in other parts of the world) and adapt.
