Why on earth does the book on Floriana, written by respected author Alessandru Bonnici, carry the title Il-Floriana?

I was born and bred in Floriana and, at my advanced age, still have a special feeling for the place but I would never say “Jien mill-Floriana”. “Jien mill-Furjana” or “Jien Furjaniż”. So, please, let us respect our native tongue!
