The West End is not to be confused with the West Side (which denotes the western half of the non-downtown part of Vancouver city to the south) or West Vancouver ("West Van"), a separate municipality.
West End by sa nemal zamieňať s West Side (čo je termín, ktorý označuje západnú polovicu mesta Vancouver s výnimkou downtownu) alebo s okresom West Vancouver ("West Van"), samostatnou obcou.
