The name "Imogen" is a well established name in England and Australia at least. There are a few of famous Imogens even I've heard of.

This is interesting, because the name comes from a typo. Shakespeare used the name Innogen, a pre-existing legendary character, in Cymbeline, but it was misprinted in the first edition as Imogen instead, and the misprint became the established version.
