Of course the celts were spread over europe till down to modern turkey so they have had settlements near or at a lot of modern city-sites. But nobody would think as them beeing celtish were they included in CiV.
Well they could have picked obviously Celtic sites, like Tara in Ireland (traditional seat of the High King) or Scone the ancient capital of historic Alba. Or they could have used many of the names from Civ 3 or Civ 4, which were sites of Celtic rule in continental Europe (most of which Caesar attacked, hence the Roman forms).
But again it's a pet peeve, that I feel they dumbed down the names, just to appeal to a "wider audience", most of whom are probably not too aware of the names of even the modern cities.
