- The station sign says Iraklio indeed, however, English Wikipedia opted for en:Irakleio station. Which one should we prefer? — NickK (talk) 20:39, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

- I am proposing "Irakleio metro station" because that is the current name of the metro station, and that reduces confusion with the separate suburban railway station of the same name. --Minoa (talk) 00:43, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
Unfortunately, I have had to close the discussion as stale, and decide that the Athens Metro station categories should be in the format "[Name] metro station", "[Name] metro station (Athens)", or "[Name] station" (in the case of multimodal interchanges), and not the other way around.
The main reasons are to match the naming format at Train stations in Greece, as well as the naming format on the English Wikipedia.
In this case, the category will now be called Irakleio metro station, and that reduces confusion with the separate suburban railway station of the same name. --Minoa (talk) 00:29, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
