About

Pervomaisk is a city in Mykolaiv Oblast in southern Ukraine, where the Syniukha meets the Southern Bug. It grew from settlements on different sides of a former imperial frontier.

Notes

Pervomaisk remains the selected current name: 2024 renaming proposals were rejected, and the state register still listed Pervomaisk at the end of 2025. Olviopol, Bogopol and Golta/Hołta were constituent predecessor settlements, not exact synonyms for the entire modern city. Do not confuse this city with the former Pervomaisk in Luhansk Oblast. Formal table-derived aliases are labelled separately from attested prose spellings. Coverage of romanization systems and historical aliases is not exhaustive.
