I think there is more usefull solution istead of translating controller name, Prameter-less routing is very costmizable, modern and SEO frindly.

The main idea is to store your route in database, with related controller, action and parameters. Then you can match that when user request any url.

var httpContext = Request.RequestContext.HttpContext;
if (httpContext == null) return;

var routeData = routes.GetRouteData(httpContext);

var slug = routeData.Values["slug"] as string;

var urlRecord = urlRecordService.GetBySlugCached(slug);

//process URL
switch (urlRecord.EntityName.ToLowerInvariant()) {
  case "product":
    {
      data.Values["controller"] = "Product";
      data.Values["action"] = "ProductDetails";
      data.Values["productid"] = urlRecord.EntityId;
      data.Values["SeName"] = urlRecord.Slug;
    }
    break;
  case "category":
    {
      data.Values["controller"] = "Catalog";
      data.Values["action"] = "Category";
      data.Values["categoryid"] = urlRecord.EntityId;
      data.Values["SeName"] = urlRecord.Slug;
    }
    break;
    .....
}
