Axoloteles?

Pretty sure that’s Aristotle. But apparently the plural in Nahuatl is axolomeh so it doesn’t work either

Ἀριστοτλ? His name is Ἀριστοτέλης. Totélēsly different...

Haha well the English have already butchered that name with the new spelling. They can have their pronunciation

Not how that works… Things change between languages. It makes perfect sense for common English pronunciation.
Hell things change in the same language.
Language is based on common use.
