That's the English spelling. A Spaniard would call it Sevilla.

Re: Sevillans? Sevillanos?
I assume that Sevillanos is the plural form when referring to a combination of both genders. Is this a polite and courteous usage?

The worst pronounciation of Sevilla I heard was from one of my workers who said something like "Serrja". This area has several of the worst dialects in Spain...
