On the map, and the place name signs are there Blattniksele. But the spelling is to the devil, according to the residents of the village who want the change to Blattnicksele. Now the spelling file a case for a higher court.
– We have had c name of all time, says byföreträdaren Mikael Forsgren to SVT Vasterbotten.
Blattnicksele – which located a few mil south of Sorsele – it was also the place name signs until 2012, when they were replaced and the village had suddenly lost its c. Blattnicksele association turned to the National Land Survey with an application to change the spelling, but was rejected on the grounds that byanamnet spelled without the c in both the cadastre and before that the land register.
But the association are now challenging the decision to the administrative court.
– What if you could go down to Stockholm and remove the c their name, wondering what would happen then. It would probably be a problem, compare Mikael Forsgren.
