Just say "Nueva York" and people will know what you mean. If you have to be specific vs. NY State, say "la ciudad de Nueva York." But always "Nueva" vs. "New" - same with "Nueva Jersey", pronounced "nu-e-va HAIR-say".

We say "Nueva York", as "new" means "nuevo/nueva" and York is a name of a British city (I guess) .
But I think we are wrong because actually "New York" is the NAME of the city so it has to be called New York in any language.
Its the same issue with New Mexico (Nuevo México) and New England (Nueva Inglaterra).
In fact México was originally called "Nueva España" (New Spain).
New York has to be New York in any language. It's a name.

I agree with Gary B, when you say Nueva York, people are likely to assume you are talking about NYC.
Ciudad de Nueva York would be more correct, I would say.
