Sydney was named immediately following the arrival of the First Fleet on 26 January 1788. Captain Arthur Phillip had originally planned to call the new settlement Albion, but changed his mind and named the region Sydney Cove in honour of Lord Sydney, who was the Secretary of State for the Home Office. The settlement later became known as Sydney Town, which was then shortened to just Sydney.
