‘Sor’ or ‘Tyre?’

Ezekiel chapters 26 and 27 in the Greek Septuagint calls the city of Tyre, ‘Sor.’ Why?

Tyre was built on a rocky island and a rocky coast. Apparently, because of this, the city was nicknamed ‘rocks,’ which is ‘Sor.’

So this Bible translates Sor as both Tyre and as the Rock, depending on the context.
