Bill,

We have lots of Bills, Joes, and Sues. We only have one Ernest Hemingway
(AFAIK). I don't see the inconsistency.


And all those Bills, Joes and Sues all started with just a single other
person having the same name. Would that have been a problem then too ?
Would something change for you if there already where five Mark Twains
and/or Ernest Hemingways when you became aware of the re-use of that name ?
It seems to be that way for you for those Bills, Joes and Sues. Which
absolutily makes no sense to me.

You inconsistency is an arbitrary count. In assuming that sharing the same
name means impersonation. In having problems with re-use even if "Mark
Twain" and Ernest Hemmingway are both long dead.

And by the way, you took a bad example as Hemmingway is an actual family
name (which Twain is not), possibly shared with hundreds, if not thousands
other people.

But, I'm going to end our conversation here. You see, I do not see or have
a problem with names being re-used, regardless of if they where once worn by
famous people or not. You do (but do not seem to have a good idea why).
As such we will never see eye-to-eye I'm afraid. So, goodbye

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
