Which name is correct?

The lesson 2.2 "The Informal Future and Holidays".

There are two names given for the same holiday: "El Día de los Reyes Magos" (in Watch) and "El Día de los Tres Magos" (in Flashcards, Recognize and Recall). I'm just wondering whether there is a mistake, or both are good? rolleyes Thank you.

I've never heard "Tres Magos" for the Three Wise Men day -always "Reyes Magos". I suppose that unusual (for me) alternative is been influenced by the English term.

If you used either name you'd be understood.

No doubt, but when it is written in Capitals, you cannot change it like that. - lazarus1907, Apr 25, 2011
