# Kamianka

A settlement in Ukraine; local name Кам'янка.

## English name

**Kamianka** — Current Ukrainian name in the national romanization adopted in 2010, recommended by the UN in 2012 and adopted by BGN/PCGN in 2019.

Other forms in use:

- **Kamenka** — Russian-based English form; useful for Soviet-era and Russian-language-derived references, rather than the preferred Ukrainian name.
- **Kamyanka** — Older Ukrainian-based spelling using ya for я.
- **Kam'yanka** — BGN/PCGN Ukrainian system (1965), superseded for US/UK geographical naming by the 2019 agreement; standard-derived spelling, with medium confidence in actual textual occurrence, not an independently attested press exonym.
- **Kam'ânka** — ISO 9:1995 character transliteration; standard-derived spelling, with medium confidence in actual textual occurrence, not an independently attested press exonym.
- **Кам'янка** — Original Ukrainian spelling for matching local source titles or addresses quoted in English.

## French name

**Kamianka** — Same form as in English; selected for French source matching. An established distinct French exonym or press preference was not verified.

Other forms in use:

- **Kamenka** — Russian-derived spelling used in French writing about Pushkin, Tchaikovsky and the Decembrists.
- **Kamyanka** — Older international form found in French source titles.
