I was unfamiliar with this issue. Was their name Yellow Horse in English? Or was it supposed to be written in a language not available so an English translation was used?

I have a feeling that if it was written in the original language it would go through, since many English names also have adjective noun original meanings like ‘beautiful flower’.

I have a feeling that if it was written in the original language it would go through, since many English names also have adjective noun original meanings like ‘beautiful flower’. The legal name is in English, so anyone expecting it to be written in the original language is expecting too much.
