Oppose, a rough Google check indicates that the Czech name may be used more frequently in English than the somewhat confusing name "Bohemian forest". And even when I type "Bohemian forest" into Google the first hit I get uses Šumava .

Hinterer Bayerischer Wald

Shouldn't it just be listed as "...and the Bavarian side Bayerischer Wald (literally, 'Bavarian Forest')", as the Hinterer Bayerischer Wald is part of the Bavarian Forest? Olessi 16:31, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

I agree - see history of the article... First it was written as you propose, but changed by 84.244.73.130. --Wikimol 09:25, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
