2013年2月27號，天河區委宣傳部、天河路黃金商業帶管理委員會發起網路投票，公選「天河路商圈」英文命名，提供咗4個選項：「Tianhe Town」、「Tinho Town」、「Tianhe Road」、「Tinho Road」（即「天河Town」、「天河Road」嘅漢語同粵語郵政拼音）。據計共收到12757票，其中嘅「Tinho Town」得到咗7876票（佔61.7%），以大比數勝出，天河路商圈就正式英文定名成「Tinho Town」。呢個係粵式英文繼廣州塔（Canton Tower）後再獲官方認可使用返英文名。
On February 27, 2013, the Propaganda Department of the Tianhe District Party Committee and the Management Committee of the Tianhe Road Golden Commercial Belt launched an online vote to elect the English name of "Tianhe Road Business District", providing four options: "Tianhe Town", "Tinho Town", "Tianhe Road", "Tinho Road" (i.e. "Tianhe Town", "Tianhe Road" in Chinese and Cantonese postal pinyin). A total of 12,757 votes were received, of which "Tinho Town" received 7,876 votes (61.7%), winning by a large margin, and the Tianhe Road business district was officially named "Tinho Town" in English. This is the second official recognition of Cantonese English after Canton Tower.
