I agree with you, surely they were false cognates, but I think it's quite difficult to change the name nowadays (maybe if Gibraltar comes back to Spain we'll change the name of Canal de la Mancha :D - it's a joke, don't get angry, please ;) )

One more correction:
She has stained her reputation at work, because she has stolen money.

My ex girlfriend had a cat named "manchas", because it had many blotches of dark patches.
