Django admin panel is showing the intended dropdown selection list.

Origin is basically a foreign key of Country model. In the Django admin panel, foreign key fields are displayed as dropdown lists.

If you want to add countries you might need to

Add Country model in Django admin site
Open Django admin, click on country model and populate data
Later this data will be available for reference in Name’s model
Where you can add Name and select country.
