==Geographic names boards== {{maincat|Geographical naming agencies}} A '''geographic names board''' is an official body established by a government to decide on official names for geographical areas and features. Most countries have such a body, which is commonly (but not always) known by this name. In some countries (especially those organised on a federal basis), subdivisions such as individual states or provinces have individual boards. Individual geographic names boards include: * [[Antarctic Place-names Commission]] *[[:fr:Commission nationale de toponymie|Commission nationale de toponymie]] (National toponymy commission - [[France]]) * [[Geographical Names Board of Canada]] * [[Geographical Names Board of New South Wales]] *[[New Zealand Geographic Board]] * [[South African Geographical Names Council]] * [[United States Board on Geographic Names]]
