Which nineteenth century artist, born in Kings Lynn, has places named after him in Australia and South Africa?
Have no idea about the South African side of this, but there is a County of Villiers in Victoria.

And I've no idea if there's a connection, but there was an 18th century artist from Kings Lynn named Edward Villiers Rippingille?
