Cannot delete a VLAN from a Cisco 2950

---

My practice rig for the CCENT includes a Cisco 2950 I created vlan222. I would like to delete, however I am unable.
I tried
(config)#no vlan 222
a "#sh vlan br" does not show vlan 222 as I would expect.
However a "#sh ip int br" does list and interface Vlan222 (See below)
Thoughts
KSwitch#sh vlan br

Paul,
Here's what appears to have happened...
According to your KSwitch#sh vlan br
You created multiple vlans! good!
Assigned ports to specific vlans! good!
You created also a Vlan 222 then deleted it and no longer shows! good!
According to your KSwitch#sh ip int br | i Vlan
You created "virtual interfaces" called:
Vlan11 172.16.11.1 YES manual administratively down down
Vlan21 172.16.21.1 YES manual administratively down down
Vlan31 172.16.31.1 YES manual administratively down down
Vlan101 172.16.101.1 YES TFTP up up
Vlan222 unassigned YES manual administratively down do
The way I spotted this was the assignment of the IP addresses to the vlan interfaces. Normally, you do this on a Layer 3 switch to indicate your default gateway for the specific vlan or for management of that vlan.
To remove the interface Vlan222, try this:

KSwitch#
Kswitch(config)#no interface vlan 222
Kswitch(config)#
%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface Vlan222, changed state to administratively down
Kswitch(config)#
Kswitch(config)#do show ip int brief

The result should be that int vlan 222 is removed.

Thanks Ronnie. That worked great.
So the key was that I created both a Vlan and an Interface but only deleted the Vlan.
Thanks for the help

Just for my own further enlightenment. I actually created an interface called "Vlan222".
Did I have to intentionally do this or did the interface "Vlan222" get created automatically when I created 802.1Q Vlan 222?
Can I name my interface (specifically Virtual Interfaces) whatever I want?
Is it best practice to name them after the VLan to which they are associated?
Thanks again

Paul,
You don't actually have to create a virtual interface to work with vlans. The virtual interface is not created automatically. Usually, you create one on a layer 3 switch, for inter-vlan routing on the layer 3 switch.
In reality, I've never tried to create a virtual interface with a name other than "vlan ###". I just tried this on a 2950, and it won't consider anything other than interface "vlan ###" You can create the virtual interface than assign a description to it though if you're trying to keep it distinguished.

Switch(config)#
Switch(config)#interface vlan 222
Switch(config-if)# description East_Campus

So this way it shows up in the show run with the description!
