# Myrnohrad

A settlement in Ukraine; local name Мирноград.

## English name

**Myrnohrad** — Current Ukrainian name in the national romanization adopted in 2010 and recommended by the UN in 2012; also the BGN/PCGN system adopted in 2019. This spelling also coincides with BGN/PCGN 1965 and ALA-LC Ukrainian 2011.

Other forms in use:

- **Dymytrov** — Former official Ukrainian name, replaced by Myrnohrad in 2016 during decommunization.
- **Dimitrov** — Russian-based rendering of the former name, widespread in older English maps.
- **Mirnograd** — Russian-based transcription of the current name. ISO 9:1995 reversible transliteration of the Ukrainian spelling. Standard-derived form; medium confidence in actual use for this place, not claimed as an established English exonym.
- **Мирноград** — Original Ukrainian Cyrillic spelling, useful for matching local documents and quotations; not a Latin-script English form.

## French name

**Myrnohrad** — Same current name as in English; retained here for French readers without claiming a separate established French exonym.

Other forms in use:

- **Dymytrov** — Former Ukrainian name in French references to the city before its 2016 renaming.
- **Dimitrov** — Russian-based form of the former name, used in older French references.

Renamed from Dymytrov in 2016. Russian-language administrative usage in occupied territory may retain the former name; no live control claim is made.
