She was born as "Franciszka", not Frances. It is common for Italian publications to use Italian names, and English sources tend to repeat them after them; however I very much doubt it she has officially changed her name from Polish to Italian. She is known as Franciszka, not Frances, in the monumental Polski Słownik Biograficzny.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 19:04, 3 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Very fair. I also notice the interwiki links are all to "Franciszka". Interesting that the Holy Family Sisters resources say "Frances" though. I would think they would want to be as accurate as possible, but then again she may have gone by Frances in Rome, where she spent a lot of time. Alekjdstalk20:16, 3 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
