Finwitch:
Well, Regulus Black is Regulus Musta in Finnish - the letters are,
accordingly, R.A.M.
As for brother, it's "veli" - quite different. And if it were to be as
you suggest, Remember Albus' Brother - it ought to be M.A.V. in
Finnish...
And, I do know the translator contacted JKR on the issue. She gave an
interview on it...
However, as per all others given info on the last letter among
translations, I think we can consider it given that the B *does* stand
for Black. Whether R stands for Regulus is yet to be seen, but at
least we know that Regulus was a DE and wanted out and is, therefore,
a likely candidate.
