When you run out of names for cities in your citylist.tab for the current map, the game names every new city "simcity" in order to let you add a city even if it hasn't got any new names left.

Curious. Does anyone know if this has this been changed recently? I remember seeing the same city names repeat after enough of them were added to the same map. It used to be quite a pain to manually rename the duplicates to prevent any future confusion.

As said, this only happens when you run out of names. Much earlier version used the same name twice. Those doublettes were even harder to spot.
