Way to find out who R.A.B. is? (spoilers)

Sorry if this has been posted before! I haven't seen it yet (which doesn't
mean it's not there),
but I have tried to go through most of the new messages....


BTW, this is my first time posting, though I've enjoyed reading everyone's
posts for some time now. :)

Okay, as we know, HP is translated into many
languages and occasionally, the names do not directly translate (they start
with different letters). So, if we assume that RAB is Regulus Black, the initials
will have to change when the note is translated, right? I'd assume the JKR
would tell the translators who RAB is so that the three initials would be
correct.

For example, look how much the name Sirius Black differs. Black
is often literally translated as the color black, which might start with a
different letter than, say, the word for Bone or Burke. Ergo, it could help
us definitively deduce who RAB is!

Chinese: Xiao-tian-lang-xing Bu-lai-ke

Danish: Sirius Zwarts
Finnish: Sirius Musta
Norwegian: Sirius Svaart
Polish:
Syriusz Czarny

Now, I know the HBP translations don't come out for a couple
months, but does anyone have a copy of another translated HP book (where the
initials are changed for Black)? We could see how they translated Black, Bone,
and Burke, etc.; if the last names do start with different letters, we could
then have something to look for in the HBP
translations.

Cheers,
