The translation of my name into other languages is not straight forward. In my official Iranian passport my name and family name has been translated as “Saeid Havakeshian”.
However, during my time in France, I tended to write my name and family name according to a French style of writing, e.g.
“Saϊd Havakechian” and this remained and was used during almost the entire part of my professional career.
Therefore, both versions “Saeid Havakeshian” and “Saϊd Havakechian” are correct and refer to the same person.
