| Many Indians, e.g. Salman Rushdie, disagree with at least some of the recent name changes such as Madras > Chennai, Calcutta > Kolkata and Bombay > Mumbai, so it's not just a matter of Anglocentrism or Eurocentrism. However, having guessed "Yangoon" after trying Yangon and Rangoon, added City to New York, and expanded "St" to Saint, I can't claim that any of my misses on this particular quiz were due to spelling or name variations, although they certainly took time. |
