Other translations, taken from Wikipedia:

Cornwall's unique history has distinguished it enough for other languages to form their own name for it. While other counties have transliterations of their names or Celtic-language names, Cornwall is quite unique in the number of European languages that have given it their own name; in the United Kingdom only countries such as England, Scotland and Wales usually have this.
