Any other font named Times (such as CG Times) will be the most similar.

Those are all standard serif fonts, but none is particularly like Times New
Roman.

I was thinking the same thing. I can't figure out why someone would need a

The font metrics of Georgia at a given point size are very different from
TNR, however.
