My great-grandfather's brother from Sicily, Rosario, was also named Charles in America and he was naturalized with the name Charles. It's one of those names where they had to kind of go a different path than simply transliterating the name. For instance, apparently the common English name for Italians named Diego was Richard. Who Knew?
