The idea is to map the land yourself. However, just because you do not like the language used does not mean to change it, else you may get banned from OSM. Localise the language, as suggested at wiki:names.
eg
Place within as many languages as you know are used locally. The map will then pick the language used by the person that is viewing it.

Hello suleyman bayram,
This document explains how names are used within OpenStreetMap. Among other things it says:
If you believe that anywhere in OSM is not reflecting the main on-the-ground used name, please contact OSM’s Data Working Group via email at data@osmfoundation.org with details of the problem.
It also says:
If you would like help creating a map of Azerbaijan (or anywhere, actually) please ask over at https://help.openstreetmap.org . Additionally, Azerbaijan is actually used as the example over at the switch2osm site.
Best Regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM’s Data Working Group.
