List of city nicknames in Texas

This partial list of city nicknames in Texas compiles the aliases, sobriquets and slogans that cities in Texas are known by (or have been known by historically), officially and unofficially, to locals, outsiders or their tourism boards. The Texas state legislature has officially granted many Texas cities honorary designations as the state's "capital" of something.〔''(Official Capital Designations )'', Texas State Library and Archives Commission, accessed July 3, 2008〕 City nicknames can help in establishing a civic identity, helping outsiders recognize a community or attracting people to a community because of its nickname; promote civic pride; and build community unity. Nicknames and slogans that successfully create a new community "ideology or myth"〔 are also believed to have economic value.〔 Their economic value is difficult to measure,〔 but there are anecdotal reports of cities that have achieved substantial economic benefits by "branding" themselves by adopting new slogans.〔Alfredo Andia, (Branding the Generic City ), MU.DOT magazine, September 10, 2007〕
Some of the nicknames are positive, while others are derisive. The unofficial nicknames listed here are those that have been used for such a long time or have gained so wide a currency that they have become well known in their own right.
