Thanks, Shaun; I hoped that someone would correct me.

And that reminds me that a colleague was from Budapest, Hungary, and when I
introduced her to someone and they spoke for a few minutes, the man said to
her, "You're only the second person I ever met from Bucharest." "Budapest,"
she said, "I'm from Budapest." "Budapest, Bucharest," he replied, "What's
the difference?"
