FWIW, I looked up Copenhagen in the Danish list and received "Søgning gav ikke noget resultat" which means literally "Search produced no result" (I do know that in Danish it is København).

Best Regards,

Jonathan Rosenne

The UN Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) is also relevant:

They keep up a list of searchable geographical names databases in a wide variety of languages:
