Are they linked because of them having more than one recurring alphabet?

Station names are relevant today, but recurring letters are not

No. It's not about the meaning of the names at all.

They all have two-word names, if you spell Highgate wrongly.

True! But this answer isn't about the number of words in the name and doesn't require spelling anything differently to how you see on the tube map

An improbable guess, each contains other words without re-ordering the letters;
high, gate
out, tot, ten, ham
cad, dill
slow, low

No, it's not about words within words or anything like that.
There was actually a clue in my last response.

Well, a link or maybe an anti-link is that the set of four cover one each of the symbols for regular 'tick', regular interchange, Step-free to train and Step-free to platform.

It's not about how they appear on the map.
It's a word one, having a map to hand will help.
