About

Irpin is a city northwest of Kyiv, beside the Irpin River. It grew as a railway suburb and became internationally known for the fighting and civilian evacuations during the defence of Kyiv.

Notes

The official national romanization omits the final soft sign. Irpin also names the river, so the city and the watercourse need to be distinguished. Formal table-derived aliases are labelled separately from attested prose spellings. Coverage of romanization systems and historical aliases is not exhaustive.
