Proof of a sibling in Canada - a difference in translation

Hello, forum,

Would appreciate your help with the following question:
I have a blood brother in Canada and want to claim 15 CRS points. I checked the official completeness check document and it's pretty clear, but there's one issue that might (or might not) be relevant. The translation of my second name in my passport differs from what my brother has in his birth certificate translation (the original is lost).

My plan is to provide his translated birth certificate along with mine and also provide the LOE, explaining that there are some natural differences in how things are translated over a long enough period of time. Is there anything else I should add in the LOE? Our second name is very rare so maybe I can somehow show it, what do you think?

Thanks,
