Alexander the Great named several cities and regions during his conquests, including Alexandria in Egypt, which became one of the most famous cities in the ancient world. He also named cities and regions after himself, such as Alexandria Eschate in modern-day Tajikistan and Iskandariya in Iraq. Additionally, he named cities after his companions and family members, like Kandahar in Afghanistan (named after his father), and Nicomedia in Turkey (named after his half-brother).
