Джен Эйр and Đồi gió hú

Russia

Джен Эйр or Jane Eyre, in Russian. Komsomolskaya Pravda (a newspaper from Rostov, Russia) publishes a series of articles about Jane Eyre and Charlotte Brontë. The novel is offered this week (from March 13 until March 19) as a part of the Библиотека на все времена series (Volume 19).

• Jane Eyre
• Charlotte Brontë died a year after the wedding
• Charlotte Bronte fell in love with a married man

EDIT: More articles in Komsomolskaya Pravda:

Шарлотту Бронте называли английской Жанной д'Арк
«Джен Эйр» впервые экранизировали в 1910 году

And also from Russia comes the rock band Jane Air. It seems that when written in Russian is pronounced the same way as our Jane Eyre. As they say, is just a phonetic coincidence, and we just love how it sounds. This is not the first rock band named after Jane Eyre that we have found out. Check this old post, for instance.
