I'm currently writing a Spanish story about the heist of The Blue Hope diamond. Would the translation be literal if the name "Hope" was actually the last name of the guy who found the diamond? Thanks.

Great question! I would have assumed that because it was a person's last name that it would remain the same. However, I found this in Spanish on Wiki...
El Diamante Hope (también conocido como "Diamante Azul o joya de mar " y "Diamante de la esperanza") es un diamante de color azul marino, con un peso estimado en 45.52 quilates.
and in English.....
The Hope Diamond, also known as "Le Bijou du Roi" ("the King's Jewel"),[3] "Le bleu de France" ("the Blue of France"), and the Tavernier Blue, is a large, 45.52-carat (9.10 g),
