Simple fallback would not work here but something like that may work

if name tag has only latin characters use name tag

otherwise fallback through following name tags:

name:nl, name:de, name:en...

With such scheme missing name:nl would not cause problems here (except
cases where dutch name has characters beyond latin script, I have no
idea whatever it may happen).
