I agree. Translations do seem to change. I assume asencion is meant to be
ascension but Cuitlahuac?  I must admit that I thought it meant something
entirely different. Something that you would not want to use as a name,
these days. But my ideas of the translation are probably wrong.

Can someone advise if I am on the right track with the translation of
Cuitlahuac:

As a place name - Location of dried excrement owners, i.e.  (possibly) a
fertiliser factory.

stems - cuitla-tl = excrement; -huah = possessor suffix; -co = specific
location suffix


As a personal name - Dried excrement

stems - cuitla-tl = excrement; hua:c = it has been dried.
