The name Fifth Third Bank comes from the merger of two large Cincinnati-based banks, the Fifth National Bank of Cincinnati and the Third National Bank of Cincinnati. In most mergers, only one name survives although U.S. business history is full of companies that adopted some form of joint name.
The entire history of the bank includes its formation as the Bank of the Ohio Valley in 1858. Thus, the bank will celebrate its 150th anniversary in continuous operation in 2008.
The unusual Fifth Third name has been used creatively by the bank, including using 5/3 as a designated, special customer and employee recognition holiday (May 3, known as Fifth Third Day).
Fifth Third Bank was founded in Cincinnati. It's unusual name came from a merger with the Third National Bank and the Fifth National Bank.

Midland National Bank was purchased by First City Bancorporation in the mid 1970's while retaining the Midland National Bank name. It later changed name to First City National Bank of Midland, then First City, Texas -Midland. When FDIC failed First City Banks, the Midland bank was purchased by Texas Commerce Bank but immediately the Dept of Justice forced TCB to sell the Midland bank. It was purchased by Ford Bank Group and re-chartered as Midland National Bank. Norwest Bank bought the Ford Bank Group and changed the name to Norwest Bank Midland. When Norwest purchased Wells Fargo and took the name, the midland bank became Wells Fargo Bank.
