[Talk-lt] Lithuania city/ town/ village names question

[J M]

Hello!
I am working on a mapping project in an attempt to map all cities, towns,
and villages in Lithuania. I found two amazing resources:
https://www.registrucentras.lt/p/1201
https://mapslt.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=44dd199b6ce1490892a96f5a10075a92

The first dataset is official government data, with clear copyright/ terms
of use. The second dataset I believe is a ESRI company, with a derived
dataset of this data, with incorporated census populations, and an
additional name. I believe there are formal names for locations in
Lithuania and then there are names that people use and are in wikipedia.
Can you help me better understand location names in Lithuania?

An example would be:
Kaunas,Kauno,Kauno m.
Marijampolė,Marijampolės,Marijampolės m.
Šiauliai,Šiaulių,Šiaulių m.
Mažeikiai,Mažeikių,Mažeikių m.
Vilnius,Vilniaus,Vilniaus m.
Panevėžys,Panevėžio,Panevėžio m.
Alytus,Alytaus,Alytaus m.
Klaipėda,Klaipėdos,Klaipėdos m.

If you have any information, I would greatly appreciate it.

Also, Does anyone know the terms of use/ copyright from the census agency
village populations or gis data?
Thank you!
Justin
