Ferdinand of Aragon

Explanation:
Hi Ely,

Despite being late, I wouldlike to point out that, whereas in Spain we normally speak of "fernando el Católic", in English he is normally referred to as "Ferdinand of Aragon" (find 3000-plus references in English on Google, as opposed to 600-plus for Ferdinand the Catholic)

Therefore, this depends on whether you want to translate literally or use the common term to name the character.

Saludos y sonrisas,

Álvaro
