In Russia there is a settlement with a name of 54 characters. The Leningrad region also has its own records. Roserister named the village of the central estate of the state farm "40 years of the Great October Revolution" in the Zaraysky district of the Moscow region as the settlement with the longest name in Russia. According to the State Catalog of Geographical Names, it has 54 characters, including numbers and prefixes. As explained in the department, the longest names are usually found in rural settlements. They are often formed from a few descriptive words and structures that reflect the history and characteristics of the region. It is worth noting that on May 1, 2026, Rosarister named another settlement in the Moscow region as the record holder - the experimental farm village of the Central Peat Swamp Experimental Station in Dmitrovsky District. Then the department reported that its name consisted of 63 characters. The reasons for changing the record were not detailed in the October announcement. At the same time, in the official documents of the Moscow region there is a different spelling of the name of the current record holder. Therefore, in the order of the Regional Ministry of Agriculture and Food dated June 2, 2026, the settlement is designated as the village of the central estate of the state economy "40 years to October", without the word "big". The reasons for the discrepancy with Rosreestr data are still unknown. The longest name without spaces, but with a hyphen, is the village of Kermanchug-Konstantinovskoye in the Baksan district of Kabardino-Balkaria. Among the one-word names, the record holders were Verkhnenovokutlumbetyevo in the Orenburg region and Starokuzmodemyanovskoye in the Tambov region. Among the cities, the longest name belongs to Alexandrovsk-Sakhalinsky in the Sakhalin region. The Leningrad region also has its own records. According to research by Yandex. Maps and Linguists compiled in August 2021, the longest name without spaces in the region is the village of Pogurlats-Vaskarsansky in the Volkhov region - 22 letters, not counting the hyphen.
