1. Farmington
   Nashville
2. Frankfort
   Memphis

It's hard to believe as iconic as Nashville, Tennessee, is that there could be more than one city with this name in the country, but it's true. Nashville, Wisconsin, is a small town of roughly 1,000 people – a far cry from Nashville's nearly 700,000 residents and more than 15 million visitors in 2018.

1. Battle Creek
   Florence
2. Springfield
   Chattanooga

Matt Groening, creator of "The Simpsons," finally let fans in on a secret. The Springfield where the cartoon cast lives was named in honor of Springfield, Oregon. There's also a Springfield in Illinois and roughly 30 others throughout the country.

1. Bridgeport
   Arlington
2. Richmond
   Dallas

Arlington is a significant city in both of these states. Arlington, Virginia, right outside Washington, D.C., is home to Arlington National Cemetery. Further south, in Texas, Arlington is home to AT&T Stadium, where the NFL's Dallas Cowboys call home.

1. Indianapolis
   Lafayette
2. New Orleans
   Muncie

Spend a day in Lafayette, Indiana, and you probably won't go far without seeing or hearing something about the Purdue Boilermakers. Travel 900 miles south to Louisiana, and the mood will turn Mardi Gras festive in Lafayette, home to the state's second-largest celebration.

1. Atlanta
   Augusta
2. Columbus
   Decatur

If you've ever done much flying, chances are you've found yourself at Atlanta, Georgia's Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. It's probably less likely, though not impossible, that you've found yourself in Atlanta, Texas, a small town near the Texas-Arkansas border.

1. Boone
   Aspen
2. Charlotte
   Denver

Both Colorado and North Carolina have their own Denvers. In Colorado, it's the state capital; in North Carolina, it's just outside Charlotte, perched along the picturesque Lake Norman.

1. Jacksonville
   Gainesville
2. Phoenix
   Miami

If you've ever listened to a Pitbull song, you know he's proud of the "305," the area code that represents his hometown of Miami, Florida. Out west, the town "Miami" means something different in Arizona, the site of lucrative mines in the late 1800s.

1. Gaffney
   Huntington
2. Anderson
   Charleston

Fort Sumter, the place where the Civil War officially began, sits on an island in Charleston Harbor in South Carolina. West Virginia's state capital bears the same name and, fun fact, is the only U.S. state to have been formed because of that same war.

1. Trenton
   Cincinnati
2. Cleveland
   Newark

Newark is not only New Jersey's largest city, but a major hub for shipping (just watch your tracking number sometime!). Newark, Ohio, on the other hand, is not quite as large, but its residents know a thing or two about sizable cities: the state's capital of Ohio is practically next door.

1. Aberdeen
   Ocean City
2. Bellevue
   Everett

You'll find an Aberdeen on both the East and West coasts of the United States: on the east side of Grays Harbor in Washington and near Chesapeake Bay in Maryland's largest city of Baltimore.

1. Bristol
   Albany
2. Jackson
   Tucson

If you're lucky enough to get a job at ESPN's headquarters, you'll find yourself in Bristol, Connecticut. That's roughly 130 miles west of Rhode Island's own Bristol, named after Bristol, England.

1. Democracy
   Liberty
2. Independence
   Republic

Missouri and Kansas both have ... Independence (both the freedom and the place name). Missouri's Independence marked the start of the Oregon Trail, while Kansas' version was named in honor of the Declaration of Independence.

1. Tallahassee
   Orange City
2. Destin
   Orlando

When you think of oranges, think of Iowa. Yeah, we don't think that sounds right either. But, both Florida and Iowa are home to a city known as Orange City. Orange City, Florida, earned its name for the groves of citrus fruits in the area, while Orange City, Iowa, was named in honor of William III of England, also known as William of Orange.

1. Green Bay
   Ashland
2. Lexington
   Louisville

Ashland, Kentucky, isn't famous for many things, but being the hometown of the Judds is certainly one they cherish. Ashland, Wisconsin, is a port city along one of the Great Lakes – Lake Superior.

1. Hugo
   Shawnee
2. Clinton
   Tampa

Both Oklahoma and Kansas have a Shawnee within their borders, which is appropriate given the presence of the Native American tribe of the same name historically located in the area.

1. New York
   Buffalo
2. Albany
   Cheyenne

Neither Buffalo, Wyoming, nor Buffalo, New York, are named for the animal buffalo. Rather, Buffalo, New York, is named after a nearby creek, and Buffalo, Wyoming, is named after Buffalo, New York. Phew! That's a lot of Buffaloes!

1. Little Rock
   Branson
2. Ozark
   St. Louis

One Ozark in the Ozark Mountains wasn't enough, so now there are two! Both Missouri and Arkansas have a city named Ozark, fitting as both cities are located in the Ozark Mountain range.

1. Clarksburg
   Salem
2. Roanoke
   Glendale

There's no place like home! At least one railroad surveyor thought so. Working in Texas, he named a local area Roanoke after his Virginia hometown of the same name. Roanoke is a Powhatan word that means "to rub smooth."

1. Hammondsport
   Toledo
2. Mount Vernon
   Mineola

George Washington's Mount Vernon plantation in Virginia has been the namesake for many things through the years, including cities in both Ohio and New York. You can also visit the grounds of Mount Vernon itself in – you guessed it – Mount Vernon, Virginia.

1. Pittsburgh
   Hattiesburg
2. Biloxi
   Philadelphia

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – the "City of Brotherly Love." We don't know how loving Philadelphia, Mississippi, is, but we do know it was named for its more northerly neighbor in Pennsylvania.

1. Baltimore
   Riverdale
2. Beverly Hills
   Chicago

Archie and the gang from the comic series hailed from Riverdale, believed to be situated somewhere in New York. But, no worries, there are plenty of other Riverdales, including these two in Illinois and California.

1. Sturgis
   Detroit
2. Lansing
   Sioux Falls

Sturgis, South Dakota, is a trip on the bucket list of many bikers who probably have never heard of Sturgis, Michigan, located near the border of its home state and Indiana. Rev your engines, boys (and girls)!

1. Auburn
   Oxford
2. Birmingham
   Andalusia

Birmingham, Alabama, has a special place in history as a key site in the civil rights movement. Birmingham, Mississippi, is its lesser-known sister city in a neighboring state. The two are separated by just two hours!

1. Malibu
   Sacramento
2. Lodi
   Trenton

The song is "Lodi" and it was named after Lodi, California, by the group Creedence Clearwater Revival. No word whether CCR ever visited Lodi, New Jersey, but we're OK with both cities laying claim to it!

1. Minneapolis
   St. Paul
2. San Antonio
   Westchester

Head north to Minnesota and you'll find one-half of the pair known as the "Twin Cities" in St. Paul. (Minneapolis is the other, if you wanted to know.) Further south, you'll find another St. Paul, this time just north of Dallas.

1. Ford
   Clinton
2. Obama
   Bush

While the Clintons (of Bill and Hillary fame) live in Chappaqua, New York, there are some other Clintons sprinkled throughout the country, including cities that bear that name in Iowa and Massachusetts. No relation, though.

1. Pittsburg
   Columbia
2. Allentown
   Topeka

Perhaps the most famous Pittsburgh (with an "H") is located in Pennsylvania, but Pittsburg (without the "H") can be found in two U.S. states: Kansas and California. The Pennsylvania version actually started without an "H," too, before being added in 1911.

1. Tribeca
   Manhattan
2. Harlem
   Brooklyn

Manhattan is one of New York City's boroughs, so yes, you can find it in New York City. The other Manhattan is located in Kansas, and is home to Kansas State University. Playing off the "Big Apple," Manhattan, Kansas, has been referred to as the "Little Apple."

1. Aiken
   Columbia
2. Beaufort
   Greenville

Both North Carolina and South Carolina have a Beaufort, but the similarities end there. In North Carolina, residents pronounce it "BOW-fert," as in "bow and arrow," while South Carolinians pronounce theirs "BYOO-fert," similar to "bugle."

1. Mesquite
   Bellevue
2. Akron
   Boise

Not only is there a Bellevue in Pennsylvania and Idaho, but there are Bellevues in a load of other places, including Washington, Nebraska, Ohio, Kentucky and Michigan. Popular choice!

1. Bismarck
   Manassas
2. Lynchburg
   Newport News

Apparently, Thomas Jefferson wasn't much of a people person, or maybe he just didn't have much use for tourists. Either way, he created an escape for himself in Lynchburg, Virginia, a town that also shares its name with a city in North Dakota.

1. Las Cruces
   Des Moines
2. Council Bluffs
   Albuquerque

It may be hard to believe, but a Des Moines does exist outside of Iowa. Des Moines, New Mexico, is a tiny town by comparison, sitting near an extinct volcano known as Sierra Grande.

1. Savannah
   Macon
2. Knoxville
   Atlanta

Nothing says "Southern charm" like Savannah, Georgia, a feeling that Rudd's Ferry, Tennessee, may have been trying to emulate when it changed its name to Savannah, Tennessee. Of course, James Rudd's wife being from Savannah, Georgia, may have also influenced that decision.

1. Salem
   Reno
2. Las Vegas
   Carlsbad

You know Las Vegas, the one in Nevada frequently referred to as "Sin City," but do you know Las Vegas, New Mexico? You might! The former has been the site of many movies, but the latter is no slouch either, serving as the setting for parts of "No Country For Old Men," "Due Date" and "Wyatt Earp."

1. Bristol
   Clarksville
2. Knoxville
   Abingdon

The state line between Bristol, Tennessee, and Bristol, Virginia, runs down – appropriately – State Street, where you can stand with one foot in each place. They're both named Bristol, though, and are considered sister cities.
