I'm not asking which naming has the more prestigious set of schools

for example, is Harvard University or University of Cambridge the more prestigious way to name a school?

Personally I kinda like the latter.

It's true, although colloquially in the UK you'll hear universities (not just Oxbridge) referred to both ways rather than only one way or the other as in the US.
