Is there any language whose name for the country that calls itself Deutschland looks anything like "Deutschland"?

There is: it's called "Duitsland" in Dutch (and no, "Dutch" does not refer to the language spoken in Deutschland ;)

However, I'm not aware of any language that refers to Greece by its native name ( Ἑλλάς, "Hellas").
