Where exactly does the name "National Museum of Fine Arts" come from? The English version of the museum website refers to itself as "Nationalmuseum". Is this a title made up by a Wikipedian or merely an older name of the museum?

It seems that the name "National Museum of Fine Arts" is used on the museum's WebArt search engine, while the name Nationalmuseum is used on the rest of the English version of the website. The article should probobly be moved to Nationalmuseum since that seems to be the official English translation of the museum. /Slarre 15:30, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

The reasoning makes sense, but isn't the name somewhat close to "Nationalmuseet" which is the similar institution in Copenhagen? Valentinian ^{T / C} 09:12, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

See de:Nationalmuseum as disambugation for Nationalmuseums all around the world just as an overview.--Kresspahl 12:30, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
