A recent project of the Ministry of State Administration and Administrative Reform called Comprehensible Bulgaria has been started with a view to make life of non-Bulgarian speaking visitors to Bulgaria easier.
All of this would have been good if the streets named after non-Bulgarians were translated as the name is in fact and not to some sort of interpretation like:
The person in question is James Bourchier and it is good that soon after this a new sign was placed…
Anyway, it is still widely used another version of that name “James Baucher” so you need to double check where exactly you are going in Sofia. If that does not help then learning Bulgarian is probably the only option left;)
