Best Answer

As I understand it from a recent trip to Ciudad Chihuahua and the Pancho Villa Museum, Doroteo Arango Arambula (whom we now call Pancho Villa) was, among other things, a simple thief in his youth. The gang that he took up was led by a man called Pancho Villa; and later when that man died, Arambula took his name as his own, keeping it until the day he was assassinated.
