Starting October 1, “Naruo Station” changed to “Naruo-Mukogawa-joshidai-mae.”
Here it is↓

The Station Name on the Route Map Is Still the Same
Apparently, the station name on this route map is still “Naruo” and hasn’t been updated yet.
新しい駅名の看板が入りました😀
これから鳴尾・武庫川女子大前駅としての歴史が始まります。
ただ、実はよく見ると下の路線図はこのあと変更予定で、非常に貴重なショットになっております。 pic.twitter.com/yy7ReHvdFK— 阪神電車【公式】（阪神電気鉄道） (@hanshin_pr) September 30, 2019
Here’s what it looks like zoomed in a little↓
(Photo taken around 11:26 a.m. on October 1)
Sure enough, it still says “Naruo.”
The route map on the fare table seems to have been updated.
鳴尾駅は本日（9/30）の営業を終了し、明日（10/1）からの鳴尾・武庫川女子大前駅としての営業に向けて準備を進めております。
ただ今、運賃表を交換しており、新たな駅名が見え始めています😊 pic.twitter.com/35yea2W5e4— 阪神電車【公式】（阪神電気鉄道） (@hanshin_pr) September 30, 2019
Kintetsu’s Route Map Has Also Been Updated
I think this is Kawachi-Yamamoto Station on the Kintetsu Line, and it looks like the route map there has already been updated.

The Station Entrance Signs on the North and South Sides Haven’t Changed Yet
By the way, we also checked the station name displays at the north and south entrances.
North side↓
Looks like it hasn’t changed yet.
South side↓
Looks like it hasn’t changed yet.
These signs are pretty large-scale, so maybe it’ll take a little longer.
In Closing
The photo showing the unchanged station name on the route map was taken at 11 a.m. on October 1. By the time this article is published, will it have changed?
(Added October 3) The Route Map Had Changed
We went to check around 1 p.m. on October 3.
You can’t really see it like this, can you?
It had properly changed.(Sorry about the poor image quality)
Still, it’s long, isn’t it? It’s the same font size as Amagasaki Center Pool-mae.
