Abstract
Provided are techniques for identifying related names. A collection of names from different languages is stored, wherein each of the names has a native orthographic form and a romanized form. An input name is received in a known encoding scheme. An alphabet of the input name is determined based on the known encoding scheme. One or more romanized names are generated based on the query name and the determined query name alphabet. Culture-sensitive regularization rules are applied to create an additional romanized name. The one or more romanized names and the additional romanized name are matched against the romanized names in the collection of names from the different languages. Data store records that have romanized names that match the one or more romanized names or the additional romanized name are returned.
