Toponymic Mod
Features:
– Much more dynamic names of provinces (but there are no many changes from original dynamic names for Americas)
– Mostly changes cover Europe, North Africa, Near East and Central Asia
– Almost entire map is revised (excluding such regions as West/Central Africa, most of Americas, Siberia and Australia), now provinces originally have indigenous names
– Nations also have indigenous names
– Fixed leader and monarch names for East Slavic and Tatar (Astrakhani, Kazani, Mishar) culture groups. Also I have added much more names for them
Cultures which have their own names for provinces (in some cases they’re just transliterations):

they cover almost entire map;

…and some other cultures and minor changes
Unfortunately, this mod is incompatible with Ironman despite it doesn’t change the gameplay anyhow. Designed only for English.
There is also a version of the mod which doesn’t change country names: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1358703817
And a version which changes only country names (compatible with Ironman):
