Come on! There’s no Latin translation for Cuahtlatoatzin? Where are those free online Latin-Nahuatl dictionaries when you need them?
Third decelnsion. Genitive Cuahtlatoatzinis.
Even Latin adopts foreign names when necessary.
There’s significant disagreement about just what the man’s Nahuatl name means, and there’s already a lot of Aquilas in the martyrology.

Today is also the anniversary of Fulton J. Sheen’s death.
Think of it. He was a great devotee of the Blessed Mother, and remarked that he prayed for the following intentions regarding his death: (1) that he “drop dead” at the age of 80; (2) that he die on a Saturday in honor of Our Lady, or (3) that he die on one of her feast days. In fact, he died in 1979 at the age of 84; on a Sunday; and not on a feast of Our Lady. He was disappointed on every count.
Or was he? He died on the anniversary of the first apparition on Tepeyac Hill, and now it is the feast of the saint who received this apparition.

Father, THAT is the kind of clarification that I really like! Seriously, simplifications are usually more confusing, and certainly more misleading, than just laying out all the facts. Thank you!
FWIW, the Spanish liturgical calendar has him listed as “SAN JUAN DIEGO CUACHTLATOATZIN” with an extra C
