By all means put their country names after them when referring to a place other than Old Reekie but the original is just that, the original..

The same goes for all the other places that 'merkins find hard to locate.

London (Where are the Big Ben and Tower Bridge replicas then?)

Paris (does Paris Texas have a replica of the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre?)

etc etc

Strange that they don't add the country to places like Las Vegas or New Orleans, or Miami. I used to infuriate my colleagues (not coworkers!) when working in the USA by deliberately adding the State to all places that were being mentioned that were out of the state we were currently in. As we had offices in two states but only 20 miles apart, it drove them mad. But I was only getting my own back on them.
