During Josip Broz Tito's presidency or dictatorship and in the years following his death in 1980, several places in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and elsewhere were named or renamed in honor of him as part of his cult of personality. Since the end of Yugoslavia, many towns and squares have reverted their names.
Numerous streets and squares were also named after Tito, both in former Yugoslavia as well as elsewhere as an honour to a foreign dignitary.
A total of eight towns and cities were named after Tito. Right after World War II, four municipalities whose role in the partisan resistance movement was perceived as significant gained the adjective "Tito's" (locally Titov/Titova/Titovo), while the capital of the smallest federal republic of Montenegro was renamed Titograd (Tito's grad). After Tito's death in 1980, four more cities were added, for a total of one in each of the Yugoslav six federal republics and two autonomous provinces. These were:
Titograd, July 13, 1946 – April 2, 1992 – Podgorica, Montenegro
Titov Drvar, 1981–1991 – Drvar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Titova Korenica, December 5, 1945 – February 7, 1997 – Korenica, Croatia
Titova Mitrovica, 1981–1992 – Kosovska Mitrovica, Kosovo, Serbia
Titovo Užice, 1946–1992 – Užice, Serbia
Titovo Velenje, October 10, 1981 – July 17, 1990 – Velenje, Slovenia
Titov Veles, 1946–1996 – Veles, Macedonia
Titov Vrbas, 1983–1992 – Vrbas, Vojvodina, Serbia
With the dissolution of Yugoslavia, each city was renamed.
Titov Vrv (meaning Tito's peak), Šar Mountains, Macedonia

In February 2008, 2,000 protestors gathered on Zagreb's Josip Broz square, which is the site of the Croatian National Theatre, to demand it be renamed to Theatre Square. However, hundreds of anti-fascists accused this crowd to be revisionist and neo-Ustaše and the attempt to rename it failed. Croatian President Stjepan Mesić publicly opposed the renaming.

In 2011 the Constitutional Court of Slovenia ruled that naming of a new street after Josip Broz Tito was unconstitutional. The court unanimously ruled that Tito symbolizes severe human rights violations, and that naming the street after him glorifies totalitarian regime and violates human dignity. The decision is highly important, because it was the first time that the highest national court legally evaluated Tito, his work, and his image.
