Why is Pablo Picasso's painting Guernica called Guernica?

Guernica is the name of a small town in the way north of Spain that was bombed by the German's, with Franco's permission (leader of Spain) during World War II. Hitler wanted to test some new bombs and Franco said he could try it out on this village/town.
