Amigo translates into friend, but those who speak that language say amigo. Those with spanish names are called their spanish name, not the english equivalent.
I have black friends, does that mean it's cool for me to say black jokes?
(having [insert ethnic/race/culture/etc] friends makes everything different for me and proves all things positive for me)
The dumb American thing is just something I say for giggles when there's an argument when there shouldn't be one.
Besides, you invalidate your own argument of 'this means this in spanish' when you decide 'but that's a name, so it doesn't count.' A pineapple and an apple may not be the same thing, but they are fruit. You can not say one or the other are not fruit.
If my name (Michael) was in a spanish movie, I'm damn sure they'd translate it to Miguel.
But I'm sure if I link this Youtube video that is German, you can see people in the comments speaking German, but speaking titles and names in English. i.e. "Episode 3" easily when it translates to something like "Folge Drei"
