Francis, Francisco or both?
Hi you all!
Because there is San Francisco city I've thought that one person name was Francisco. Now that there is a new Pope, I saw it called Pope Francis. So, what's the right word?
Thanks!

[Good job. The same name may have many forms. 'John' in German is 'Johann'. The Russian form is 'Ivan'. Pope John Paul II once recited to a crowd all the different forms of his name in different languages.]
