In April 2012, the competition was renamed to the "EAFF East Asian Cup".^[1] In December 2015, the new competition name "EAFF East Asian Championship" was approved,^[2] but later changed to "EAFF E-1 Football Championship".^[3] On 2 May 2024, it was confirmed that the new format would come into effect from the 2025 edition, with the name of the competition changing to EAFF W-Cup.
