How do Japanese people feel about foreigners (especially Asians) adopting 日本語名前

I’m an Asian-American planning to do a PhD in Japan and maybe work there. I’m thinking about using a 日本語名前 to help me fit in better since I might look Japanese but don’t speak the language fluently—I only speak English.

Would this seem weird since I don’t sound like a native speaker? Or would it still be seen as thoughtful?
