iRaq and iRan are silly but the "Kyiv" stuff is different.

It always annoys me how bent out of shape people get over pronunciation of city and place names in other languages. Some languages have different sounds and thus things are said differently.
The Chinese word for Australia is "Audaliya" and even the frothist of frothers don't go complaining about it (I hope)
Even if they did, they should stay mad. None of the Anglo settler-colonial names are legitimate after all.
