I like Milan better than Milano.
Both Turin and Milan are actually their
respective names in their local dialects.
I prefer Munich, Cologne to München, Köln.
Also special mention to Aachen which is IMO a city with a horrendous name which has however an even more horrendous name in Italian (Aquisgrana)
Nah Wien just doesn't sound chic.
