Notes
Novovorontsovka remains the official register name; local renaming consultation in 2024 does not establish an enacted replacement. Earlier Mykolaivka/Nykolaevka is recorded, but English and French sources differ between 1821 and 1829 for adoption of Novovorontsovka; no exact replacement year chosen. https://geonames.land.gov.ua/map?id=135883fc5c2e ; https://decentralization.gov.ua/newgromada/4722 Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency.
