Actually, that's what I'm saying -- if the person/company who has created the product has a different brand name in different countries/languages, then you should use the different brand name when your audience is the same. Otherwise, stick with the original...

Personally I think your wrong there. PHPNuke is the brand name and shouldnt be translated. You don't see Apple calling themselves "pomme" on french sites do you? On apple.fr they even refer to the airport express in english.

If you were developing the products, you might want to change the names, however if you're just talking about the products, you need to use the correct names.

e.g. if PHPNuke went by PHPArmaNuclear en español then you would use PHPArmaNuclear on sites translated into Spanish. If it *doesn't*, then you would use PHPNuke.
