Think Saint Petersburg will ever go back to Nyen? Berlin, Ontario renamed itself to Kitchener in WWI. Now there's a (not very strong) movement to rename the city again because the British General the city was named after (Horatio Herbert Kitchener) was responsible for the creation of concentration camps in the Boer War. Of course, like Saint Petersburg, Berlin wasn't the first name for settlements in that area. People rename things and I personally am okay with that. Like Shakespeare said, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
