The feature
As-is situation: When a location is reverse geocoded using Geonames, the returned language is English no matter which local / langauge is configured.
As you can see in the following screenshot, the language of the UI is set to German, but the reverse geocoded countries are in English.
<img width="1498" height="472" alt="Greenshot 2025-08-16 22 42 08" src=" />
To-be situation: Country, city, etc. information recevied from Geonames is shown in the selected language of the server.
Solution idea: Use the "lang" parameter of Geonames (see [here]( and receive localized names.
