C'mon! Sochi is quite easy to remember! At least not as difficult as Novorsibirsk, Chelyabinsk, Nizhny Novgorod or some other russian cities.

It's definitely a -ch sound so Why on the earth It would be Sotsi? I really don't understand some of you guys typing mistakes.

It's "Bronx". The Bronx is a misnomer.

I've always seen the Czech spelling of Prague as Praja, but maybe I'm crazy.

Perhaps you are thinking of Praia? The capital of Cape Verde? (Otherwise, praja with a j is amongst other thing an indian movie)

Paris (from June 1944 onwards) and Tours (briefly in 1940) were also 5-letter French capitals in World War 2.

There are actually quite a few former capitals of Japan whose English names have 5 letters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_of_Japan. Other than the currently accepted answer, the most well-known are probably Asuka, Osaka, and Heian.

Though I will readily admit that anyone who has heard of these (especially Heian) has probably also heard of the currently accepted answer ;)

Shouldn’t the “France in WW2 be changed to “Vichy France?” The capitals both have five letters. Although Vichy France is kind of a giveaway, so maybe something else?

Missing Vichy was one of the more frustrating experiences on this site. I am a major WW2 buff. I use the term 'Vichy France' all the time. I do not know why it slipped my mind in this instance. It's like forgetting how to ride a bike. Maybe I should get better sleep or something.
