Why do Japanese names end in "i" sometimes add an "n" at the end of it (like megumi -> megumin), but this doesn't happen to names end in other vowels?

I have no idea, but there are Japanese speakers here so I'll bump the thread for you.
Names don't generally seem bound to grammatical rules, though.
