multilanguage NAME LDAP implementations

[Wrobel, Charles C (Chuck)]

Is anyone aware of a public multilanguage NAME (cn) LDAP implementation? I'd also appreciate any advice on how to implement a multilingual LDAP directory. I'm only interested in having the ability to store & retrieve a person's name in a non-Latin script and in a Latin Script.

For example, if the cn & sn used the Latin script

cn: Honda, Ichiro
sn: Honda

it would also be nice to store & retrieve the person's name using a native script such as Japanese. Thus extending the above and adding some made up attributes this might look like

cn: Susuki, Ichiro
xcn: ????
sn: Honda
xsn: ??

it would also be nice to store +ACY- retrieve the person's name using a
native script such as Japanese. Thus extending the above and adding
some made up attributes this might look like
cn: Susuki, Ichiro
xcn: +Zyx1ME4Aje8-

??? Why would one want to store "Suzuki, Ichiro" in one string and
"Honda Ichiro" in another one, when talking about the same person?

Stefan,

You do know your Japanese. I started off with Ichiro Susuki and then realized that I wasn't sure of the Kanji for Susuki so changed to Honda as I knew this Kanji but I forgot to change the English name.
