I'm Lithuanian.
In Lithuanian only DAD was named not like original name. Translation of it would be "Say hello to death another day".
And, Skyfall's name still hasn't been revealed.
So, the list:
DN - Daktaras Ne
FRWL -Iš Rusijos su meile
GF - Auksapirštis
TB - Kamuolinis žaibas
YOLT - Gyvenk du kartus
0HMSS - Jos Didenybės Slaptojoje Tarnyboje
DAF - Deimantai amžiams
LALD - Gyvenk ir leisk mirti
TMWTGG - Žmogus su auksiniu pistoletu
TSWLM - Šnipas, kuris mane mylėjo
MR - „Moonraker“
FYEO - Tik Tavo akims
OP - Aštuonkojė
AVTAK - Vaizdas į žmogžudystę
TLD - Į dienos šviesą
LTK - Leidimas žudyti
GE - Auksinė Akis
TND - Rytojus niekada nemiršta
TWINE - Ir viso Pasaulio nagana
DAD - Pasveikink mirtį kitą dieną
CR - Kazino „Royale“
QOS - Paguodos kvantas
SF -?

So, let's post Bond film's names in your languages :)

    This is a good idea! I'd like to read more. My native language is English, though; I will try to find out what the Japanese translations are (they are usually different - sometimes way different - than the English title).

    Okey dokey, then. I just Yahoo'd it (not google) and found the klast.net website. Here is the link: http://www.klast.net/bond/translat.html It has many Bond movie titles in languages and many translated into English! For example, the Living Daylights in Japanese is translated as "Death Has the Scent of Roses". Interesting, eh? ;) Gotta love it.

    Yes. :)

    I'd say Deathgallop could be AVTAK, In Deadly Terror TLD and The Lonesome Agent LTK?

    Correct. :) Deathgallop was easy, The Lonesome Agent wasn't that difficult either but how did you know In Deadly Terror was TLD?

    Well, the title The Living Daylights is hard to translate and keep the same meaning. I thought it has to be the one that can't be translated. Over here they called it With The Finger On The Trigger, which is also irrelevant to the original title.
    Plus, if Deathgallop is AVTAK and The Lonesome Agent is LTK, and supposing you listed the Hungarian titles in chronological order, it could only be TLD. :P

    Yeah, using "Ur dödlig synvinkel" ("From a deadly point of view", sort of) for FYEO messed things up a bit when AVTAK came, forcing it to become Levande Måltavla/Living Target.
