> for smaller seas, I suggest adding names in all official / main languages of adjacent countries, so instead of "Black Sea" there will be:
Karadeniz Marea Neagră Чорне море | Черно море | Чёрное море | შავი ზღვა
That's fine.
> For larger seas (with more neighboring countries, so the name would exceed the 255 character limit in OSM) and for continents, oceans and poles you need to come up with something else
I'd suggest using the 6 main United Nations languages for the "name=*"
tag of Oceans and Continents: Arabic, Chinese, English, French,
Russian and Spanish.
But there is no perfect solution, and as mentioned, most database
users will want to pick a localized name of the form "name:<iso>=" so
these tags should be added.
