Source: ERR Authorities may no longer be able to refuse to register names spelled with foreign letters, following a recent Supreme Court ruling which overrode officials in the town of Rakvere who had done just that, ETV news show Aktuaalne kaamera (AK) reported Tuesday night. The mother of the child at the heart of the case says that interior ministry intimidation was prevalent, and that the latter had joined forces with Rakvere authorities in order to steamroll her. The Supreme Court threw out the case, concerning a child called Nelery, now aged two-and-a-half, following a long-running battle on the used of the letter y in her first name. This character does not appear in the Estonian alphabet, with ü taking the position of the same phoneme that would be denoted by y in the Finnish language, for instance.
