Allahabad not Prayagraj now

edit

It should be changed to Allahabad as per WP: COMMONNAME according to Google Ngram Allahabad is the most used term not Prayagraj. So it should be change like Turkey Which isn't change to its official name Turkiye because of WP: COMMONNAME also like Chittagong it's official name is Chattogram But it was not change because of the same reason.

Etymology updates

edit

This page is for Prayagraj. The etymology references to Allahabad is irrelevant here. It's quite childish to talk about some other word in etymology than the topic of the page. 2607:FEA8:4B60:C700:3607:7E78:A05A:5895 (talk) 17:43, 28 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

But Prayagraj is merely the new name for Allahabad. Why is was called Allahabad is entirely relevant.-- Toddy1 (talk) 17:59, 28 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
