See CultureInfo.NativeName:

CultureInfo myCultureInfo = new CultureInfo("es", false);
Console.Write(myCultureInfo.NativeName);

EDIT: changed DisplayName method to NativeName as I realized the OP asked for it.

The below little code snippet will get all the available culture and print it in tabular format. The output of the code is given below,

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

        CultureInfo[] cinfo = CultureInfo.GetCultures(CultureTypes.AllCultures & ~CultureTypes.NeutralCultures);

        Response.Write("<table border=\"1\"><tr><th>Country Name</th><th>Language-Country code</th></tr>");

        foreach (CultureInfo cul in cinfo)

        {

            Response.Write("<tr>");

            Response.Write("<td>" + cul.DisplayName + " </td><td> " + cul.Name + "</td>");

            Response.Write("</tr>");

        }

        Response.Write("</table>");

    }

This will display the name in the required (native) language:

Console.WriteLine(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en").NativeName);
Console.WriteLine(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("de").NativeName);
Console.WriteLine(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr").NativeName);
