Again, this also depends.

There are many cases that, even though a brand name has an official
translation, people just ignore the translation and uses English
brand name.

On the contrary, I've seen other cases that, once a name has a
translation, nobody uses the original name anymore.

What I want to express is, I believe no single party or no single
person can have absolute decision on this. It depends on the
all people's practice for that particular language.
