I think we can choose the name of a famous cartographer whose name is easy to pronounce in any language.

And then,

[Cartographer Name] + ["Maps" in your language]

Males me think of Jacques Cartier whose surname sounds like Cartes (French for map).

My first instinct is "Here We Go Again" but I think there's an existing map company that would take exception to that.

I'm not sure what you mean by that

Organic Maps was born as a fork of Maps.Me, because the owner/developer went closed source. And the same thing is happening again, forking the same thing for a similar reason again...

~~Social Street Maps~~

I feel like it should be something that rolls off the tongue. Something easy to search and not awkward to recommend irl. Sucks because Organic Maps was pretty good in both those cases
