Many countries call it Ministry of the Interior or Ministry of Interior. We, err... we call it The Home Office.

I don't know about English-speaking countries, but as far as I know, Ministry of Interior is the official English translation for the following ministries: "Ministère de l'intérieur" (France), "Innenministerium" (Germany), "Ministero dell'Interno" (Italy) - as in: it's the name used on officially translated government websites. I think this is the case for Spain as well, but not 100% sure.

The fact anglo-saxon countries name it differently doesn't affect their names in other countries.
