One solution is not to make the name translatable at all, but i guess it may make \
sense in some languages that use non latin alphabet to use their alphabet to write \
"Go" non-translated.

The other solution is add a --context to the extractattr call in your Messages.sh \
explaining what those are and making very clear to translators that they should be \
totally sure that they want to translate a proper name.

Of course that means that the i18n() calls you make to load those 3 strings now need \
to be i18nc with the matching context.

Cheers,
  Albert
