French reference heading still uses Kirovske, so current official main overrides it. Russian occupation administration retains Kirovskoye. Earlier Soviet renaming is variously dated 1944 and 1945 in the checked references; no exact earlier date asserted. https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/1352-19 ; https://ppu.gov.ua/press-center/istoriia-na-karti-krymu-dekomunizatsiia-iak-shliakh-do-vidnovlennia-pam-iati-ta-istorychnoi-spravedlyvosti/ Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency.
