I checked the other photos here and unfortunately there is none where you can see the name on the bridge wing, which should be in Roman characters. It will be an eternal struggle I am afraid, but as long as the IMO number is correct, we know what ship we are talking about.

Yes, Pieter, I was in doubt how I should write this name. Shipyard's buildinglist and Miramar is listing her as KARL LINNE. So is Lloyds Register, but only until abt. 1986 or 87, when they add this extra Y to her name. And to make it more complicated; I have a german book about Russian merchant fleet, there she is listed as CARL LINNE, with C tn the first name

@Arne, the name of the botanist after which this ship was obviously named was certainly KARL LINNE (Or Carl von Linnaeus of Carl Linné) but I think that the Russian name of the ship was KARL LINNEY. Always tricky this, but the Y character is clearly visible.
