A
Some of the most well-known cities in the world have gone through at least one name change.The new names often exhibit shifts of power，or may honor a specific person.Here are some that were once known by other names.
Ho Chi Minh City，Vietnam
Saigon became Ho Chi Minh City in 1975 when it joined the Gia Dinh Province of Vietnam after the end of the Vietnam War.It was renamed after a previous communist prime minister，as the new name represented the north's success.However，many people still refer to the city by its original name.
Mumbai，India
The city formerly known as Bombay officially became Mumbai in 1995 when the Shiv Sena political party rose to power.The Shiv Sena party saw Bombay as a relic of Britain's colonial legacy （殖民遗产），and Mumbai was just one of many places in the country to receive a non-British name.
Istanbul，Turkey
