# Uzyn

A settlement in Ukraine; local name Узин.

## English name

**Uzyn** — Current Ukrainian name in the national romanization adopted in 2010, recommended by the UN in 2012 and adopted by BGN/PCGN in 2019. BGN/PCGN Ukrainian system (1965), superseded for US/UK geographical naming by the 2019 agreement gives the same spelling here. ALA-LC Ukrainian table (2011 edition), for bibliographic retrieval gives the same spelling here.

Other forms in use:

- **Uzin** — Russian-based English form; useful for Soviet-era and Russian-language-derived references, rather than the preferred Ukrainian name. ISO 9:1995 character transliteration; standard-derived spelling, with medium confidence in actual textual occurrence, not an independently attested press exonym.
- **Ouzyn** — French-language form, useful when an English text quotes a French map, report or source title; not the English main name.
- **Узин** — Original Ukrainian spelling for matching local source titles or addresses quoted in English.

## French name

**Ouzyn** — Attested French reference spelling; ou renders у.

Other forms in use:

- **Uzyn** — International Ukrainian spelling also useful in French; Ouzyn follows French ou for у.
- **Ouzine** — Russian-based French spelling used by the Institut français d’histoire de l’espace in its Popovitch biography.
- **Ouzenytsia** — Earlier name explicitly given in the French reference account; historical, not current.
- **Tenberchyna** — Earlier name explicitly given in the French reference account; the change year is not asserted.

## About

Uzyn is a town east of Bila Tserkva in Kyiv Oblast. It is known for its former military airfield and as the birthplace of the cosmonaut Pavlo Popovych.

## Notes

Record certainty includes transliteration and alias coverage; formal system outputs are not all attested press forms.
