Makarios, who is at the UN in New York during the rioting in Cyprus, returns to Nicosia on January 10, 1955.

At a meeting with Makarios, Grivas states that their group needs a name and suggests that it be called the National Organization of Cypriot Fighters (Ethniki Organosis Kyprion Agoniston—EOKA).

Makarios agrees, and, within a few months, EOKA will be widely known.
