I doubt that, Onno, but since you're only using this case for practice,
it is not really relevant. You could have called the table
"collyflower" (bloemkool) and still use it for the same purpose.

Because OP doesn't have any language- or location relevant attribute in
his Stories or Localisation tables, I think it's unlikely that he wants
to use the term 'localisation' this way. Rather, OP may well be
overestimating the degree of perfectness.

Side note: your comparison to the Asterix series is realistic, since
Marten Toonder's comic stories about "Tom Poes and Olivier B. Bommel"
have been translated to some 20 languages, and the names used in the
stories have similar characteristics.
