like town names are very unique; you probably couldn’t find the same 2 towns next to each other very often
but mark steve chris hannah claire laura etc are all very common across the anglosphere

That’s an American perspective, aside from a few exceptions (variations of forum, fort, etc.), it’s not as common in Europe
It’s extremely common in Germany. Take Münster for example, there are at least 9 cities and towns with that name. Others include Berlin, Hagen, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Freiburg, and so on. It’s such an issue when trying to trace down ancestry as many records only include the city or town and not the state / region.
Are you sure? It’s quite common with town names. Hell, there is 105 Switzerlands in Germany!
Well the OP didn’t say he didn’t want American perspective and America is part of the Anglosphere since we speak English and are a former British colony
