Is it said differently in some regions?

In Cantonese, Carlos is often transliterated as 卡路士 or 卡羅斯.

The character 卡 in 卡洛斯 is often used in Chinese to transliterate the 'k' sound in foreign names and also means 'card' or 'stuck'.
In Chinese, the character 洛 in 卡洛斯 refers to the 'Luo River' and is associated with the ancient capital of Luoyang.
If a person named Carlos moves to a Chinese-speaking environment, they might be given a 'real' Chinese name that sounds nothing like 卡洛斯 to help them blend in.
