[edit]Etymology
[edit]The nickname is of unclear origin. According to popular etymology, it originated with Saint Francis of Assisi, written in Ecclesiastical Latin as pater communitatis (“father of the community”) and the first syllable of each word put together, but this is rejected by Diccionario de la lengua española. Compare Pancho, also a nickname from Francisco that drops the initial F for P.
