Toddler's name is Alan Kurdipublished at 18:10 British Summer Time 3 September 2015
Relatives of the three-year-old boy who drowned off Turkey yesterday have told the BBC that his name should properly be written as Alan, not Aylan.
Turkish authorities had registered him as Aylan, a Turkish name, but the family are Kurdish and he was called Alan (with a long 'A' at the start).
