The free Dict has definitions and examples idioms.thefreedictionary.com/all+over+town Ther is also a 1983 book titled Famous all over town. So, this idiom or variations of it are not totally unknown; it denotes someone who is very well known in a city or community for his/her (dubious) achievements - just like the Persian idiom in the OP. | |
