The name "Hwa Chong" was first used in 1972 when it was adopted as the name of Singapore's second junior college, and the first government-aided junior college. The name was intended as a direct translation of the abbreviation of the Chinese High School's native name, "華中" (Hua Zhong), which corresponds to "南洋華僑中學" (Nanyang Hua Qiao Zhong Xue). This was to reflect the affiliation of the Hwa Chong Junior College to the Chinese High School, despite being run by separate but related management committees. This is also reflected in the initial native name of the college, "華僑中學附屬初級學院", which translates to "Junior College affiliated to the Chinese High School". The name was shortened to "華中初級學院" in correspondence to its formal name. In 2004, the decision to merge Hwa Chong Junior College and the Chinese High School led to a conflict about the name of the merged institution due to pressure from alumni, staff, and stakeholders to preserve the name and heritage of both independent schools. After a series of balloting, the merged institution adopted the name "Hwa Chong" from the junior college as the formal name, while retaining the native name of the Chinese High School. The name, Hwa Chong, had since been adopted in schools in Singapore and overseas that are established under the educational organization encompassed under Hwa Chong Institution, as the institution sets to expand its global brand.
