It was pointed out on channel that, as well as the commonly known naming dispute, there is also disagreements about the Irish name of Dingle. "An Daingean" vs "Daingean Ui Chuis".

This is a case where name:ga might be different from offical_name:ga.

Whether to add an official_name:ga when name:ga is the same is debatable. I'd suggest adding both, since it makes the OSM data more complete.
