Honestly culture and naming don't truly matter because the cultures they're based off IRL don't really exist in-universe. Same goes for pronounciation (which is why it's "Wice" Schnee and not "Vice" Schnee like it's supposed to be). We mostly follow both so it'd be more palatable and comfortable for us.
