You might have to help people at first with the pronunciation. But after that I don't think it would be very difficult. As for whether or not it would look off with a last name similar to Chaplin, I don't see a problem. The styles aren't similar, but that's par for the course where I'm from. The sounds of the names seem alright, i.e., no tongue twisters.

I know a woman who uses the French pronunciaiton of Angelique, with the same "zh" sound. Everyone gets it just fine. She named her ds Jean-Paul, again the "zh" sound. Again, everyone manages to get the "zh" sound correct.

Zhanna Ramona is a beautiful combination. It has a hint of mystery about it.
