The name Nordhorn was henceforth used for the newer settlement, now standing on the threshold of becoming a town, whereas the old settlement around the market church came to be known as the "Old Village", and is indeed still known as Altendorf ("Old Village").
Nime Nordhorn kasutati edaspidi uuemate asunduste kohta, mis seisid nüüd linnaks saamise künnisel, samas kui vana asula ümber turukiriku sai tuntuks kui "Vana Küla", ja on tõepoolest siiani tuntud kui Altendorf ("Vana Küla").
