67 Russian cities answer to just 31 names — and only five names are used three times
Asked:“Show all cities with same names in Russia.”
A Roskadastr-based count published 13 July 2025 lists 67 city instances sharing 31 exact duplicated names: 5 names occur three times and 26 occur twice. The rows below cover all 31 of 31 names in that published universe. “Same name” means the exact current city name — not similar names, former names, villages, or urban-type settlements. The count uses Russia’s official (Roskadastr) territorial scope, which includes cities in Ukrainian territories claimed by Russia; this is single-sourced underlying data cross-published by three hosts.

group includes a city in Ukrainian territory claimed by Russia (disputed scope)
Four of the five triplicate names — Александровск, Кировск, Красноармейск, Приморск — reach three only by counting a city in Ukrainian territory claimed by Russia (ЛНР, ДНР, Запорожская область).

Советск is the only name tripled entirely inside internationally recognized Russia: Тульская, Калининградская and Кировская области.

The source articles state regions only for the five triples; regions for the 26 duplicate pairs are left blank rather than inferred.

All 31 rows trace to one 2025 Roskadastr release repeated verbatim by three web hosts — single-sourced underlying data despite three URLs per row.

Method: 31 rows, one per exact duplicated current city name, from a Roskadastr count published 2025-07-13 and cross-published by pnp.ru, ura.news and 1rostov.tv (single-sourced underlying data). “Cities” counts city instances per name (sum 67). Regions shown only where a source states them (the five triples); blanks are not inferred. No coordinates supplied, so no point map. Scope is Russia’s official territory claim, including occupied Ukrainian areas; this is not a sovereignty statement.
