As you already said, Sorani is not specific to a country, so we
shouldn't use a lang code that it's specific to a country...

What I see from ISO-639-3 is that ckb is named: 'Central Kurdish' We can
either name it that way or another better name you decide.
May I suggest that you request an update to ISO-639-3 if 'Central
Kurdish' is not the right name?
Cheers.
