Question Saint John and St. John's... Confusing?

Is it confusing that Saint John, New Brunswick and St. John's, Newfoundland, two of the oldest cities in Canada, both located in Atlantic Canada, have almost identical names?



St. John's, NL, founded 1583




Saint John, NB, founded 1604


Anyone have any funny or interesting stories and experiences regarding confusion between these two cities with nearly identical names? Or is there really no confusion at all, like some residents of both cities like to claim?
