Both names are correct, and both names are the same location!

The devastating earthquake that struck Klima (Old Klima) in Skopelos, leading to its abandonment, occurred on March 9, 1965. The main earthquake, measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale with its epicenter near Alonnisos, caused extensive damage in the Northern Sporades, forcing residents of Klima to leave their homes and establish their new homes in Neo Klima (Elios was the name then because of the olive trees surrounded).
