Barcelona (1939-1974); after the Spanish Civil War, the Catalan language and flag were banned and football clubs were prohibited from using non-Spanish names; these measures led to the club having its name forcibly changed to Club de Fútbol Barcelona and the removal of the Catalan flag from the club shield; club changed its official name back to Futbol Club Barcelona in 1974)
