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!

Francis, Francisco or both?

Hi you all!

Because there is San Francisco city, I've thought that one person name was named Francisco. Now that there is a new Pope, I saw him 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.]
