We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Upload all to iCloud, use the built in duplicate manager (doable directly on your iPhone in the photos app).
It will look at more than just the file name…
Then do a clean backup using icloudpd which will neatly file them by year, month and day
How do you get them into icloud?
Using the website or connecting to your iCloud account on each phone. Photos app will do it
