Hotlanta 

A common nickname for Atlanta popularized thoughout the United States and abroad for over two decades by the marketing efforts of the Atlanta Convention Bureau and various trade and tourist organizations.

The "Hot" in "Hotlanta" refers to the many wonderful things to do in Atlanta, especially the sexy nightlife Atlanta is famous for. To a lesser degree, it also refers to the hot summer temperatures common to Atlanta.

While in the past, the term "Hotlanta" was used primarily by those visiting Atlanta, with over 340,000 Google entries, "Hotlanta" is now commonly used by most Atlantans and has become synonymous with "Atlanta".

Hotlanta 

Archaic name of Atlanta, Ga. used in the same sense as "Christiana" (Oslo) or "New Amsterdam" (Manhattan). After the Leo Frank incident it was decided that more civility was needed, thus the institution of neo-traditional placenames.
