When was Hyderabad named?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
The European travellers von Poser and Thevenot found both names in use in the 17th century. One popular legend suggests that the founder of the city, Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, named it Bhagya-nagar after Bhagmati, a local nautch (dancing) girl whom he married.
