Rfv-sense "An attributive name of Saint Juan Diego."
I'm skeptical Juan Diego was ever referred to by this name in Classical Nahuatl. It does not seem to occur in the Huei tlamahuiçoltica that I can find. It's also a noble name, and Juan Diego is supposed to have been a commoner. --Lvovmauro (talk) 04:55, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

- The name is attested in the Codex Escalada, so far dated to the 16th century, where it appears as Quauhtlactoatzin. As Lvovmauro points out, the name indeed seems to indicate nobility, while Juan Diego was of macehual status. With regard to this, José Luis Guerrero Rosado suggests in Dos mundos de un indio Santo that despite his being a commoner, his family was perhaps of noble stock. —K (talk / contribs) 19:41, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
