App "Center" should be called App "Centre" when Non-American English is used

The word "center" is spelled "centre" in Australian, British, Canadian and New Zealand English, however when these languages are used at a system level, the application is still called "App Center". This feels especially important in an OS that prides itself on its language support.

Thank you!

On version 1.0.0, the application name is written correctly in the GNOME Shell application chooser, however the name isn't properly localised throughout the application itself (such as in the About screen, and the name of the application in the Gnome Shell Overview).
