In Slovak translation of the book, translator kept the English variant - Thomson and Thompson.

Small correction: two Tintin albums (The Crab with the Golden Claws and The Secret of the Unicorn) published Egmont in Slovakia in 1994. These two albums were translated to Slovak from English language, thus the translator kept the variant Thomson and Thompson.

But King Ottokar's Sceptre was published in 2005 by Enigma and this edition was translated from French language. This time they translated names and for this edition they go by the name of HorvÃ¡th a HorvÃ¡t (common Slovak surname).

No more albums were published in Slovak language.
