In both [[Croatian language|Croatian]] and [[Romanian language|Romanian]], which are official in provincial administration, the city is called ''Novi Sad''. Historically, the city was called ''Neusatz'' and ''Neusatz an der Donau'' (translated as 'Novi Sad on the Danube') in [[German language|German]].

In its [[sensu lato|wider]] meaning, the name ''new plantation'' refers to the "City of Novi Sad", one of the city-level [[Subdivisions of Serbia|administrative units]] of [[Serbia]], which includes Novi Sad proper on the left bank of the Danube, the towns of Sremska Kamenica and Petrovaradin on the right bank and the extensive suburbs of the left bank. ''Novi Sad'' can also refer [[sensu stricto|strictly]] to only the urban areas of the city (Novi Sad proper and the towns of Sremska Kamenica and Petrovaradin), or only to the historical core on the left bank, i.e. Novi Sad proper excluding Sremska Kamenica and Petrovaradin.
