Intelligence (___) checks are about recalling lore about an entire subject. You give every forest gnome intelligence (nature), then every forest gnome somehow has acquired knowledge of the mating habits of dolphins, or the preferred diet of a hippo. Doesn't make sense. If you must of this, look at the dwarves' Stonecunning for how to apply cultural specific bonuses to knowledge checks.

For what it's worth, I think you're trying to fix some things that aren't broken, or fixing the wrong thing in the dragonborns case, by shoehorning in a bunch of extra skills. That being said, if you're the DM of your own game, go ahead with whatever you want to do. If your players like it, that's all you need.
