Salem is actually a legitimate name in real life. In the UK, it's a boy's name rather than a girl's name, but it's a unisex name in the US. It had a low level (but statistically recognised) use prior to the 1990s, but saw a large upswing in use after the 1990s - the uncle-stuck-as-a-black-cat in ''Series/SabrinaTheTeenageWitch'' made the name more popular - enough to have statistics compiled on its use as a baby name by both the US and the UK.

Nebula is also a name that does the rounds for kids - along with names like Rain, Rainbow, Cloud, and so on. Not exactly a name I'd ever give a kid, but some people have.

There are certainly a couple of artificial names in the show (Ozpin being the big one) but, with the exception of Ozpin, most of the artificial names are created the same way parents create 'unusual' names in real life (Jaune, for instance, has been used as a baby's name at least twice that I know of, long before this show ever came along - and, yes, the parents' in both cases just took the French word and turned it into a name, knowing that it wasn't a real name).

To my mind, the show seems to be mostly MeltingPotNomenclature, but I can agree that there is a bit of AerithAndBob going on where Ozpin is concerned (and perhaps one or two others - not Salem or Nebula though).
