Adding on to the anon who mentioned ease of pronunciation, (which is indeed the major reason) name changes can also be a way to localize things. I find most dubbed anime (used to?) imply that the show took place in the area the dub was made for. Which meant that the more commonplace (ambient) characters received named that suited the audience viewing it.

Yu-Gi-Oh has a special case where they were forced to change certain names, and is probably the one of the better dubs in terms of re-naming, imo.
