+1, names are a fundamental part of OpenStreetMap, we must keep the decision 
and authority in the project, decide on edge cases and contested values 
according to our rules and not based on someone else’s rules.

In particular, regarding wikidata, we are focusing on ground truth, while 
wikidata is mostly a mixture of different sources, often imported without even 
having a human looking at it. I also agree with Simon that this would be an 
enormous drop in quality.
