Well: The data on your device will most certainly have been preprocessed; you weren't using a raw .osm.pbf file. Whoever does the preprocessing is of course free to join OSM data with any other database; so if for example we agreed that Wikidata was our name repository of choice and we'd reduce our own name:xx tagging to what is used by the people living in a place, then there would have been a wikidata tag on the "Köln" node and the software that generated your offline database could have made a choice whether, and to what degree, to include the Wikidata name catalogue in your offline data set.
