World place names lists

The following lists are automated extracts of the KNAB Place Names Database, to provide easy access to name variants in one language. As a rule, these listings do not comprise geographical features situated in areas where the language has an official status. In this sense the name variants given below can be considered exonyms but the listings also include names of international features that by definition do not have any exonyms.

Name variants in the language are displayed in red; in parentheses (in green) local official names or English and French names are shown. These are followed by the feature designation code and by the country code(s) (additionally, the continents are denoted by A – Asia, E – Europe, F – Africa, N – North America, O – Australia and Oceania, S – South America ). Additional symbols used after names: * less used name forms, ^ historical names, # obsolete names.

The name listings are not edited nor can they be considered in any way as authoritative. Their accuracy is dependent on sources used.
