nella mail dice:
The current convention that has been followed is to use `name` for the local name in latin script. The reasoning if I remember was two fold: - English being one of the official languages, latin script is widely used in cities and in public signages in smaller towns. Only in villages it is uncommon. - Keeping the tagging convention simple[3], that could be used throughout the country in a standard way


e anche il wiki lo conferma:

India has many languages and writing systems. The community convention is to use the Roman alphabet ('English') for the name key and to use the name in the local script for the "name:lang" key. Wherever possible, add the names in all languages that you can; this will make it possible to create maps in multiple languages. 
For example, to name the city of Bengaluru (Bangalore), use the following keys and values: 
Key	Value
name	Bengaluru
name:kn	ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು
name:ta	பெங்களுரு

se fosse il nome in inglese dovrebbe essere name=Bangalore


ciao,
