The US doesn't have the same sort of naming laws that are common in European countries, but there are state-specific limits around what you can have in a legal name.
Specifically, in California, you cannot have diacritic marks in a name, which is part of why people were shocked that Musk was able to name his child X Æ A-12, when someone named Ramón Núñez will have their legal name as "Ramon Nunez" in California.
