The Spanish match programmes for the home matches against England in 1980 and 1987 both call it the Estadio Chamartin when detailing this game.   A history of the Spanish national team calls it the Bernabéu at that time.  The Football Grounds of Europe;Simon Inglis says 'the name Santiago Bernabéu was officially adopted in January 1955'; and above all the cover of the actual match programme for the 1955 game calls it the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu. - Cris Freddi
