Proper noun (Usage notes)

:

Often combined with Franz as Franz Xaver or Franz-Xaver.
The name has traditionally been restricted by sect as well as region, namely to Catholics (Francis Xavier being a leading figure of the Counter-Reformation), and mostly to Upper German (i.e. southern) areas, where initial /ks/ (spelt gs-) is a usual onset in the local dialects and thus poses no phonetic difficulty. It is most common in Bavaria and Austria.
