Re: A possessive question

Banks's as far as I know, since putting the apostrophe after the first "s" with nothing else would denote plural Banks owning something, despite the fact that we know it's only one mister Banks. Aside from that, I believe it would still be prounounced the same as "Banks" even with two "s" which makes us think of saying "Bankses".
