There aren't many elements we can look at for this. Most of the ones we have today were not known in ancient times, so the question doesn't apply to them. Ancient peoples knew some elements. but each language would have had its own name for them. Many of the Latin sounding names were concocted by scholars when the element was discovered, as Latin was the language of learned people for hundreds of years. Sulfur derives from the Latin sulpur, and it's probably what the Romans called it, but the Greeks called it θεῖον (roughly 'thion') and the old English name was brimstone.
