The highest peak in Australia is Mt Kościuszko but Australians don't know it's named after polish General because they can't even say it.

They pronounce it their own way and they do know it is a pole. Are you suggesting they think it is an Anglo-Saxon name? Like Jonno Kościuszko?

But it's NOT a pole, it's a whole mountain, dumdum.
