Deleting multiple identically named files each in separate folder

I work on rather big ( 800+ files ) project in VSCode and got somewhat stuck today.

There are multiple files with exact same name in multiple folders. Deleting each one manually is painstaking.

These files are: en.yml and fr.yml

I know I can Find & Replace, it finds all occurrences of files I want to delete all en.yml and fr.yml files.

Is there an easy way of automating / achieving this?

best to do it from the terminal/shell

find . -name en.yml | xargs -I {} rm {}
