The RAE decrees that this letter does not exist in the Spanish alphabet – Diario La Página –

The Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) has applied numerous spelling changes throughout history, but in 2010 it implemented some variations that still continue to cause doubts 14 years later. The 2010 Spelling edition sought to be “reasoned and exhaustive, but simple and readable” and applied several important changes.

Among the changes that the organization made are the change from “quorum” to “quorum”, the elimination of the accents of “only”, “hyphen” and “or” between numbers.

The RAE did something else and said goodbye to the pronunciation of the ‘Greek i‘ and was renamed ‘ye’. Something that he replied a few years ago on social networks after a follower’s question.

“The name ‘ye’ is recommended for the letter ‘y’, but the traditional name ‘Greek i’ is also accepted. The letter ‘i’ is called ‘i’ or ‘Latin i’ (if you want to differentiate it from ‘y’ when the name ‘Greek i’ is used for it,” he said in a post on X, the former social network Twitter.
