Namespace names are only retrieved from the file of the *content*
language, not the user language. Changing your language in your
preferences will not change any namespaces.
You can provide namespace aliases using $wgNamespaceAliases in
DefaultSettings.php, but these are only for convenience, when editing
pages or typing URLs, they do not affect display.
