According to the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City, the naming and adjustment of routes of roads are carried out based on Decree No. 91/2005/ND-CP of the Government promulgating the Regulation on naming and renaming roads, streets and public works. This Decree clearly stipulates: "The People's Council of provinces and centrally-run cities has the authority to decide on naming and renaming roads, streets; large-scale public works of important significance".

The Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee has completed the procedures, including organizing to collect opinions from specialized agencies, Party organizations, government, Vietnam Fatherland Front, organizations, scientists and people. The Advisory Council for naming and renaming streets and public works in the city met on June 3, 2025, agreeing to propose a naming plan and adjusting the schedule. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also issued an official dispatch agreeing with the proposal to name streets in Ho Chi Minh City.

Previously, at many meetings with voters in Ho Chi Minh City, many voters expressed their opinions on the duplication of street names after operating the 2-level local government model.
