well...aslong as it is in favour for Depor the I dont give a damn 
Club's name
Several news agencies have referred to the club of Deportivo as "Coruna" lately. . Does it actually mean something? No! The city's name is A Coruña, not Coruna or La Coruna or whatever. The club's official name is Real Club Deportivo de La Coruña, shortly Deportivo de La Coruña or Deportivo.
I was actually even wondering if the forum's name could be Deportivo de La Coruña, but that's not the issue here.
This is just my opinion, I don't like the club to be called Coruna.

Well, this is a pretty rare mistake, nowadays when Depor are famous... but the smaller clubs suffer from it quite frequently:irritate: When I see Vallecano, or Betis Sevilla, or Villareal, it really get's me frustrated:frustrat: What a bunch of dorks!:devil:
And abroad you always have the problem of the city name being translated... something I strongly oppose to too. It's a brand name, not some crap you can switch around as you like. Real Madrid CF, not Real Madryt as they write in polish:yuck: Or Bayern Munich instead of Bayern Munchen:yuck: So frustrating sometimes, but it's frequent and uncurable I suppose.

Bayern München....
Some international news sites still make this mistake, are we famous for them?
Real Madryt is a funny invention indeed:howler:. But Bayern Munich, the English version, is just useful for people without the letter 'ü' on their keyboard.

Munich is at least the city's name in English but Munchen does not mean anything, mostly because the letter 'ü' is a full letter, totally different from 'u'.
.
RCD Mallorca, RCD Espanyol have also 'Deportivo' in their club's name but the thing is that for them it's just a prefix, for us it's the name. No-one says RCD La Coruña, it would be just freaky.
The English fans are such clowns getting annoyed for just a name.... But the thing is different, for ManU, 'United' is a nickname but for Depor 'Deportivo' has always been the default name.

Exactly, also it would be the correct name for this forumZhuge Liang said:

The club`s name is Deportivo la Coruña. Deporte is spanish for sports. It`s la Coruña becuase the city`s name is La Coruña. Even if it`s mostly spelled on maps and etc. as A Coruña. So in english the name is La Coruña Sports or something like that. I also think the forum name should be changed. The forum should have the clubs offical name and no english translation. Which mean "Deportivo La Coruña. Or the catalan spelling La Corunya.
No, if you say "Deportivo" in Spain all people will think in Deportivo La Couña; it's the way it's known. You can also say "Deportivo Alavés"if you want, but not only "Deportivo". It's not unfair, it's how people call the teams: Deportivo, Atlético, Barça, Alavés, Mallorca... I repeat, for example you can say "Ajax Amsterdam" or simply "Ajax", but not only "Amsterdam". That's just dumbmutu1875 said:
