Don't want to be mean, but this isn't about what whoever is used to use. 
I know many people in non English speaking country that are used to name 
things using local language. SO what, do we should also consider « 
courrant », « corrente » and so on ?

Note that I'm not advocating for naming in local languages. This is a 
dumb idea, but anyway, this is used in the industry quite a lot. So ?

Shouldn't English should be the default, international language ? And 
so, English words isn't better than a double translation ?
