Gurugram is the official name of the city, following a renaming from its earlier name, Gurgaon. Both terms continue to be used interchangeably in everyday conversation, property listings and casual reference, particularly since the change is relatively recent in the context of the city's history.

For property search purposes, buyers and tenants can generally use either term interchangeably without confusion, since they refer to the same city and region.

This overview does not go into the historical or administrative details behind the renaming, since that falls outside the scope of practical property guidance.
