For your point about changing their names, we can’t change country names solely in English because there’s not an organization for it.
We only changed the name of Turkey to Türkiye because it requested to be named as such in the United Nations.
It seems like the nations themselves would have to request their names to be changed in all foreign languages for English to adopt it.
