If there is not much language used locally to name the object, well yes just put those languages in the name tag. It already the case for many examples: in Morocco every thing has three names, for the Channel, for Golfe de Gascogne between France and Spain... https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=6/39.529/-2.362 In Morocco they don't use a token to separate languages, but the alphabets used are different making it easier to read. When only latin alphabet languages are used, it seems that '/' is used most of the time, tough '-' is also used around the Baltic Sea area https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=7/61.562/23.582 May be '-' is not the best token to used, since it might be used inside a name. For international object with many 'local' languages next to it, like Atlantic Ocean. We have two choices : everything or none. Everything option can be long, and may not fit into the 255 characters limitation, but why not as long we have every languages ? None is fine for me too.
