I know the title is for the sake of the reference, but I'm pretty sure it was still called Constantinople back then
By the 19th century, the Turks were consistently calling it Istanbul, though 'Constantinople' was still in use outside of the Ottoman Empire.
The official name was still Constantinople until 1930 though, so maybe it should be "Istanbul AND Constantinople" rather than "Istanbul not Constantinople"
That's no body's business but the Turks.
