Hi, I had a similar remark from users. This is disturbing for them to read on the main page of the wiki in a wiki that is not in english "Main" and "WebHome". I am talking about the "Add" area. I think we should introduce the notion of space title that would be used for display instead of space name. We could use title property of WebHome page of a space. This way, users could change it easily.
