Answer 2

Many. Here are some links so you can check it out!

This first one brings back a listing of 965 places with the name Alexandria as part of their name. Not all are towns or cities. The most well known are probably in Egypt, Virginia and Louisiana.

http://www.geonames.org/search.html?q=Al...

this site lists 67 places, most of which are towns and cities, some no longer inhabited, and Alexandria is an earlier or alternate name for a few of them.

This last one has the shortest list. 15 of the places are in the USA...and it self-limited to the spelling Alexandria only.
