Nottingham is best known internationally for the legend of Robin Hood, who is said to have lived in Sherwood Forest near the city. The city is also home to two major universities: the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University. In speech, 'in Nottingham' is the standard prepositional phrase; 'at Nottingham' may be used when referring to the university (e.g., 'She is studying at Nottingham'). The abbreviation 'Notts' is occasionally used in writing for Nottinghamshire but not for the city itself.
