Talk:Antonio Ricci (archbishop of Reggio Calabria)

First name: Antonio or Matteo?
David M. Cheney is referenced for the idea that the first name of Ricci was Matteo. In his article on Matteo Ricci, he references Eubel, Hierarchia Catholica II, p. 222, where the name is given as 'Antonius de Rizzis', not Matteo. Cheney therefore seems to contradict his own source.

Gabriel Chow, GCatholic, also names 'Matteo' Ricci, but provides no reference.

Both of these authors are self-published.

The only place where I can find 'Matteo Ricci' is on the archdiocesan website: Diocese of Reggio Calabria: "CRONOTASSI DEI VESCOVI DI REGGIO CALABRIA", but it is unreferenced, and no author takes responsibility. It appears to be self-published.

The published and editorially reviewed material should take precedence: Eubel, who uses the name Antonio. Other published sources also use the name Antonio. Consider, for example the tradition of the Chancellery of Aragon, which used the name Antonio Ricci (letter of Ferdinand I): The Catholic Encyclopedia uses Antonio Ricci.

Ricci's own funeral monument in Naples uses the name Antonio Ricci: Ferdinando Ughelli, U. Coleti, Italia sacra 2nd edition Tomus IX, p. 532.
