Did you try? I know that iconv has quite extensive number of transliteration rules. Other option would be to use recode (https://packages.debian.org/sid/recode, https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/recode/ or http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Recode)? It used to have a huge number of transliteration rules.
