I knew about the Haarlem/Harlem connection, since most of the best New York
place names are of either American Indian or Dutch origin. Didn't know
about Breukelen tho'. Is there also a Braancks, Yeunkers and Fleusching
Meudoows? ;)

We also have a Harlem and Brooklyn but misspell it as Haarlem and
Breukelen...
