- §“Sec. 4”
For ducks sake, just because one country wants it to be different doesn’t change how it’s internationally recognized.
Do note that there are commonly used methods in OSM to add local names [1.1], alternate names [1.2], language specific names [1.2], etc [1].

A quick read finds me the local name should not be recognized under those either. That is, until it’s actually commonly referred to like that. Then still, it would only be a local nickname to some region.
And the other two don’t appear to apply at all. Perhaps as language evolves a bit in the coming decades this might change.
