Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. There are many places all around the world in which due to diglossia, place-names have more than one name. This is the case of Basque Country, where Pamplona and Iruña are the same place, in Spanish and Basque languages. And this names are not displayed according to the elected languages for the app.
Describe the solution you'd like My proposal is that if user selected a language for the app (for example Basque), those names should be favoured. So, if Basque language selected, it should display Iruña, the basque name of the place. Same for any other situation in any other country in which happens the same.
Additional context The map displays only the Spanish name for the city, not both nor only the Basque

Cool! Seems that there's a plugin that can be added. However I'm not programmer and I want be able to help with that with coding, but yes with opinions and so on 👍
In the next version it should look sth like this because of the move away from mapbox: Is this solving your issue @Porrumentzio ?
Yes, that seems to solve the problem! Now it's showing combined names, apparently from OSM. Great, thanks, I'm then closing this issue
Perfect :ok_hand:
