City Name Stealer State

Georgia is a city name stealer state. I'm sure they made up some of their own, but check out these stolen city names:

Albany
Arlington
Athens
Boston
Brunswick
Cairo
Crawfordville
Dakota
Dallas
Dublin
Eldorado
Fargo
Franklin
Gainesville
Geneva
Jackson
Lake City
Lakeland
Lexington
Louisville
Madison
Manchester
Midway
Nashville
Oxford
Rome
Roswell
Sparta
Trenton
Vienna

There may be more, but I say a state with this many stolen city names is a city name stealer state.


p.s. I realize that Georgia was one of the original 13 colonies and as such, may have been the first to name a city such as Springfield
