If 4 or 5 militaries are all preparing for operation "morning glory" then the other side's intell uits can make a pretty good guess that something big and unified is going on. If 4 seperate peration names are being used then the other guy has to consider if it's one big op or several smaller, local ones.
The way I'd write it is to give the offensive a codename for each military taking part. Everyone involved knows what that codename refers to.

Do you mean something like this?
US Armed Forces would use a term like Black Dragon
British Armed Forces would use a term like Y Ddraig Goch (Welsh: Red Dragon)
German Armed Forces would use a term like Drachemörder (Dragon Killer)
Or do you mean, operational names that are totally unrelated?

I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.
