I am not sure this counts but I'll try it anyway. There is a city in southern
Arizona named NOGALES. Across the international border in Mexico, there is a
city named NOGALES also. Now, I'm not sure if they were the same city before
and were divided up or if they started out separately.

Now, in Southern California there are two cities bordering each other that
have interchangeable syllables in their names. The places I'm thinking of are
CLAREMONT and MONTCLAIR. I know the spelling is different but I think you
understand my point. Are there other places in the country with this
distinction? What about the world?

Sidenote: Also in Southern California, there is CALEXICO and across the
          border in Mexico, there is MEXICALI.

Just my 8% of a quarter's worth--
