For example, if the .NET Framework English version is installed, the DisplayName for the specific culture U.S. English is "English ( United States ) ". If the .NET Framework Spanish version is installed, regardless of the language that the system is set to display, the culture name is displayed in Spanish; therefore, the DisplayName for the specific culture U.S. English is "Ingles ( Estados Unidos ) ".

The below shows the DisplayName used for each of the available cultures.
