In 1602, Nguyễn Hoàng changed the name from Hoài Nhơn to Quy Nhơn. In 1778, the Tây Sơn dynasty settled and developed An Nhơn into the emperor's fortress. In May 1799, after accounting for the stronghold, Nguyễn Ánh changed its name to Bình Định. In 1832, Minh Mạng created the district of An Nhơn in its current form.
