Halo is what i'm focussed on but this goes for any sci-fi series involving humans I suppose. Typically colonisation inevitably leads to settlements named after old ones, such as New York, New England, etc... which made me think that if one came from New York (perfectly likely) and decided to name a settlement do you reckon this would lead to a New New York or another place called New York?

Why would they change the name of an already advanced city? Mombasa got changed because it's in a third world nation that got super-upgraded.

Actually it's because the city is just off the coast of Old Mombassa and serves the same, if not a more complex purpose than Old Mombassa.

Maybe. Humanity had around 800 worlds colonised, it's possible.

I wasn't talking about changing names, I was saying that there may be a settlement away from Earth that could be called New New York. Just as New York was named after York here in England, perhaps someone would name a settlement New New York after the Earth settlement of New York

We always say to fight fire, you must use fire. This is wrong. Fighting fire with fire will leave scars and a new flame will rise. We must instead use water. It is the opposite of fire, it extinguishes the fire, it cools, it refreshes, it heals. We are made up of 70% water, we are not made up of 70% fire. Please practice what we truly are
There's a Phoenix city. The Didact attacked Phoenix, Arizona in Halo 4.

New Phoenix is actually 138 miles wide and covers an entire state- it is comprised of many cities.

You know what 343 should do?

Hold a fan art contest. Cities, countries, and places in our world with the future touch of Halo to them. Because I want to see New York Halo style.
