I have removed the translation from Spanish to Basque because I don't see the point of that translation. Basque is not an official language here in Castro Urdiales. And, certainly, this town has not two names as the towns and villages of the Basque country have (the official name of Bilbao is Bilbo). Of course, many people that lived or works in the Basque country has to live here because of the political situation (a kind of internal exile), and certainly it is a place where Basque tourists came, but they do also go to Paris, London, Sevile or London and I don't think in those articles the name is translated. --Joanenglish 19:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)


The only official name of Bilbao is Bilbao. Bilbo is the basque name given to Bilbao by the Basque Language Academy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abalizelay (talk • contribs) 22:19, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
