The metropolitan area is Tampa Bay, not Tampa. Tampa is just a city within a multi-city area.

The same thing can be said about pretty much all cities on this list. Seoul National Capital Area, Paris aire urbaine, Greater Cairo, etc. Those names are not commonly known, whereas the name of the largest city in the area usually is.

Yeah, but Essen is not the largest city in the metropolitan area, which is commonly known as "The Ruhr" or "Rhine-Ruhr".

It's very close to Dortmund. Dortmund is 580,000; Essen is 575,000. I would probably include it as a bonus.
