For a series that has characters named Hiccup and Fishlegs and Snotlout, I hardly think that Camicaze is any stranger.

Those are perfectly serviceable as names - though they're more likely as acquired names than birth names (though it's not unlikely to go from the former to the latter) - they're descriptive of a quality, which is the origin of many names (others are declarative statements, like 'God is good'), even if, in English, most of the common names have gotten very removed from their original meaning.

Camicaze doesn't mean anything, unless you take it as a non-standard transliteration of Japanese, which makes no sense in the setting.

Astrid also doesn't fit in the setting, but has the advantage of being not-uncommonly used as a name in English, so doesn't stand out.

They are birth names. Explanation: Vikings name their kids weird/stupid names to scare off trolls that might steal babies.
