When the British took over the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam (1664), they renamed the colony "New York" to honor the Duke of York and Albany, who was King Charles II's brother. The name was applied to the settlement (city) as well as the entire colony that later became New York state.
*The city's name was temporarily New Orange after the Dutch recaptured it during the Third Anglo-Dutch War, in 1673. But it was ceded to Britain again by the Treaty of Westminster in November, 1674.
