Province names don't change

[Legolas]

I noticed something strange in my game. When I go into province screen, I can click on the province name and type in something else. However, when I click away, that change is not saved. I tried pressing Enter after typing the new name, I tried clicking somewhere else on the province screen, etc., but nothing seems to help. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm missing?

Maybe there's already a province that has the exact same name

No, that's not the case.

No, that's not the case.

I had this issue trying to rename Istanbul. It simply took a few tries to stick. Not entirely sure why. I never pressed enter, just typed the new name and clicked elsewhere. In between I renamed another province, which worked, so maybe that one province was just stuck.

Enter doesn't work. Click on the name, type it in, click somewhere, anywhere outside that screen. Might need a few tries.

It started working after I clicked on my country's shield in the Cores list for the province. And now it works every time, no matter where I click. Weird... But thanks for the replies!

I've found that closing the province window with the little 'x' in the right corner consistently gets the name changed in one try.
