I think the problem is Bug 281979 didn't see app name properly as shortBrandName.

Application name should be localizable according to Glib manual.
But now it is hard coded in nsBrowserApp.cpp/nsMailApp.cpp/nsCalendarApp.cpp

The shell integration code doesn't manage the name. If this is still a problem either reopen and move to toolkit > startup and profile system (the code bug 281979 actually fixed) or file a new bug in that component.
