Any recommendations on how to maintain each tiddler title unique

Any suggestions on how to keep the title of each tiddler unique?

For example, I’m importing text from an Excel spreadsheet.

Example:
States
Alabama
California
Florida

Places in each state
DMV
Public Parks
State mascot

And I have three Springfields, and three entries called DMVs

Question 2:

And how about if there where an additional one such as:
Public Park Services
WC
Golf Cart
Bungee Jumping

How would you name each tiddler so that there are no overwritten tiddlers

Wordpress uses a field called slug, which is not visible. Is there anything similar in TW

So I could have
10 Male WCs - one for each WC in each Public Park of each State, and
10 Golf Cart entries - same as above

Do some namespacing in the title field. For example, Alabama/Public Parks/WC, California/Public Parks/WC, and so on.

I suggest namespacing with a / character in particular, like folders in an operating system. Create a couple of tiddlers with /'s in them, then click More and then Explorer to see how they get arranged.
If you have a single-file wiki and turn it into a Node wiki, then your tiddlers will become files in a folder hierarchy just like this. But let’s also not ignore the Explorer function which will pick up on the / character for you.

That said, TiddlyWiki is effective because it doesn’t enforce hierarchy in data. So while namespacing the title, I’d also encourage you to link the tiddlers with tags and/or fields as necessary.

For an alternate title for display purposes (like the slug you mentioned), create a field called caption. This is the standard and used in a few places in TiddlyWiki out of the box, like in tab titles.
It can also be displayed alongside the title where it is present. I tend to treat it as secondary as I’m the exclusive user of my wiki, so I am happy with this small tweak you can drag into your wiki by @vilc. You can always switch it around as needed if you want to prioritise the title over the caption.

More and then Explorer

This might be dumb but I don’t see the More tab in my TW.
Is there a way to get it back:

There are multiple ways for it to be suppressed, but use advanced search (magnifier next to search bar), then choose system tab, to find this tiddler:

$:/core/ui/SideBar/More

Check whether it has the tag $:/tags/SideBar. (It should have that tag by default, and removing that tag is the easiest way to keep it out of the sidebar.)

That said, there are alternate ways of suppressing a sidebar tab, so details may depend on whether your wiki has some plugin or special css to modify its visibility.

thanks! was also missing the Tools tab!

special css to modify its visibility.

Thought it was that, but removed the CSS temporarily and it didn’t fix the missing tabs. It was the missing $:/tags/SideBar I think from the Customizer plugin

Got back the More and Explorer tabs, but don’t see where are the tiddlers stored:
