Venedig

1. Venice (a port city and comune, the capital of the Metropolitan City of Venice and the region of Veneto, Italy; former capital of an independent republic)
2. Venice (a metropolitan city of Veneto, established in 2015; in full, the Metropolitan City of Venice)

From Middle High German Venēdige, Venēdje, from Venetan venèdego (“Venetian”). The shift from a demonym to a toponym may have been influenced by the presence of the suffix -ig in many other toponyms, such as Leipzig, Schleswig, etc.
