Pop-up at launch: "Adobe Illustrator needs to download the font..."

When I start Illustrator I'm getting Popups about fonts (of which I've never heard) that need to be downloaded first, when I try to skip I just get a different missing font. Launching is impossible.

I have the newest version of Illustrator for iMac Catalina. Already tried restarting mac and reinstalling Illustrator.

Should I just download them?

Which language is your system and Illustrator?

Did you somehow "clean" your Mac and delete fonts?

Do you just launch Illustrator or do you open files?

English. Didn't clean/ delete anything.

I just launched it, and I also don't recall using those fonts ever, I've never heard of them...

I actually had Illustrator open today and was all good, then I closed it, and when I had to open it again: This happened.

Didn't do anything in the meantime...

Looks like a downloadable Apple font, but why?
