In Finnish alphabets (the same case with Swedish and probably Norwegian, not sure about German etc) the last three letters are å ä ö. Now default children sorting sorts "Järvinen" before "Jokinen". So I think it assumes ä = a.

Not a huge issue, I ended up using custom sorting and API here to get right order.

I have this on my config: setlocale(LC_TIME, 'fi_FI.UTF-8');

Not sure if there is some other setting that resolves this, since I assume this is more likely PHP issue than PW issue.
