When Did Buckingham Palace Change Its Name From Buckingham House?

Buckingham Palace synonymous with royalty since the early 19th century was a town house initially owned by the Dukes of Buckingham right from the beginning of the eighteenth century.

The building known earlier as Buckingham House became first associated with the monarchy in 1762 when King George III bought it in 1762, over the course of the next century the structure became vastly enlarged the precedent being started by King George III and continued under William IV finally ending in fruition in the times of George IV who is credited with transforming Buckingham House in to a palace befitting the official residence of the Royal Family.   

King George the fourth was a spendthrift, so he decided to modify the building. He wanted to modify it to use in conjunction with St James's Palace as his father had but soon by 1826 he decided to convert the house to a fully equipped royal palace and for this transformation he commissioned John Nash. However the work could not be completed in time while the costs were escalating simultaneously which was a matter of concern for the Parliament and of which the Press too had taken due notice. So William IV dismissed architect Nash and employed Edward Blore to do the rest of the job. He suited the taste of the new King. The entire project cost more than 700,000 pounds at the time.
