- Support, "For foreign names, phrases, and words generally, adopt the spellings most commonly used in English-language references for the article, unless those spellings are idiosyncratic or obsolete," per WP:MOS. This name has a well-established common English-language form. We can skip the research and follow a widely available reference work like Columbia Encyclopedia.
