Yes, because there are multiple Romance languages spoken in Spain, and they’re all “Spanish” to people who live there.

That’s the name used in the language itself, in English they would mostly use “Spanish”

Indeed, it’s more used in Spain to differentiate it from Galician, Catalan, Basque, etc. In South America there is no need for that
In Paraguay they call it Castellano
