Livio, thank you but since there is no "J" in Italian, what would that Latin word translated to Italian be?

Livio is right...
Trojani= Troiani; in the past time when in a name or word was a hiatus and one vocal was a "i", it was used the "j" ( instead of "i") so no doubts in the spelling..
that because all records was by handwriting.. and no typed...
