@@memmori1 actually Constantine did not found Constantinople. It had already been renamed several times by then ranging from Byzantion to Secunda Roma to Nova Roma and on and on before Constantine even showed up to rename it. Also cities belong to the people who live in them, so it truly is the business of the Turks.

[@kimlend7680]

It doesn't mean "in the city" as in being in the city, It means "to The city" or "towards The city" or even "at the city" as in dative. In Turkish, "şehre doğru", yönelme anlamı. Also if it's written as poli, it means a city but if its written as Poli then it means Istanbul.

Quick history lesson: Istanbul was always used by the Turks when addressing the city, at first calling the walled city within Constantinople as stanbul and later Istanbul. The ottoman constitution states the capital of the Ottoman Empire was Istanbul. The name might derive from the Greek word Stimboli. Constantinople was a westernized word used to describe the city much like their word for Iran, Persia.

[@roberttbrockway]

Constantinople means 'City of Constantine'. It was named thus by a guy named Constantine.

As a greek I'll tell you my opinion on the name. Istanbul, is a good compromise, in greek it sounds like (to the city) and it keeps the peace. Istanbul will always be Constantinople to the Greeks, but let's face it the bloodshed and war crimes on both sides if it ever comes to war is not worth it not even for a city like Constantinople. We Greeks are lucky to have what we have now. My family was genocided out of Smyrna I'd be rich now if it wasn't for Turkish war cimes they never admitted to. But I don't hate Turks, in fact I'd love to marry a Turkish woman and live in Istanbul, and I wouldn't hold it against a Turkish man if he married a Greek woman and lived in Athens either.
