Last time I checked, Da Nang is still called Da Nang. It's Ho Chi Minh City that used to be called Saigon, though many Vietnamese immigrants that now live in the USA still call it Saigon, much like some Russians who grew up in Leningrad and insist on calling it that though the new (original) name is Saint Petersburg.

Hell, anything's better than these contrived names they give nowadays to cars and companies. I mean, what the f*** is Accenture?!?!? (formerly Arthur Andersen) or Altria (formerly Philip Morris).
