Show municipalities on cartogram map

Hello

 

I'm trying to show Danish municipalities on the Cartogram map, however I have a few that aren't showing. I've tried adding Denmark before a separator to test if that works, however there was no change. I'm using the municipalities official names and Sate or Province as the Data Category. 

 

As you can see on the picture, everything worked out of the box with the official GeoInformation except for 3 places. 

 

The ones that didn't work are 3 places, Nordfyns, Halsnæs and Faxe for some reason. (Æ-Ø-Å isn't an issue in the rest)

However when I changed Nordfyns to Nordfyn it worked on the right sided map. So I'm wondering if there is a place to see what names is actually used on the map? I tried searching Bing but they use the same names as I had above. 

 

Any help on how I get the last two of the on the map?

It was apparently needed to add municipality after each name in order for it too work. 

So Faxe Kommune in Danish.
