I found a solution for this from another query. I need to use a certificate with Subject Alternate Names which is authorized for multiple domains. Such a certificate could, once installed where the CSR was created in order to pair it with the private key, be exported as a bundle including the private key then imported on all involved servers. So, just 1 certificate will solve the purpose.
