I want to start with my language
my language is Arabic
the name of Japan in Arabic is ( Al-Yapan)
 
"Japan" in German, pronounced "yapan", with a stress on the first syllable.
 
日本 (Nippon, Nihon) in Japanese. ;-)

----
Al-Yapan (Arabic)
Japan (German, pronounced "yapan", with a stress on the first syllable)
Nippon/Nihon (Japanese)

*Perhaps each poster add the list at the end of the message? :)
 
In the 50's , things made in Japan said made in Nippon , but I never heard anyone call Japan that here in the US ; it has always been Japan.
 
In Turkish, we say "Japonya". Just read like you are reading romaji, the pronunciation is just like that.
 
In Dutch, more or less like in German (Yapan) but with the stress on the *last* syllable.
 
In the national language (Malay), Japan is called Jepun. And in Chinese (I'm not fluent in it), it would be 日本 (rìběn).
 
In Spanish we say:

Japón for nihon
Japonés for nihongo
Japonés or nipón for nihonjin
