French term or phrase: What is the name of the inhabitants of Azerbaijan?
Our group is working on a ENG > FR translation of a document on the culture of Azerbaijan and we are wondering what the name of the inhabitants of Azerbaijan is.

Is it:
"Azéris"

or is it:
"Azerbaïdjanais"? Or both??

Thank you very much!
