Rejected as:
- Not that common for friends to have the exact same full name
- Even if user has friends with exact same full name, they can easily handle this issue by adding a nickname / other identifier to the name field (e.g. "Gabriel Tan Jun Jie JC" and "Gabriel Tan Jun Jie High Sch").
- We believe it is more useful most of the time to prevent duplicate names so that users do not have to do duplicate detection themselves every time they want to add a guest.
Phone number comment not considered in this response as it is a suggestion and not a bug.

Description
It is mentioned that guests cannot share the same name as another guest.
I believe this is not a good way of distinguishing guests. It is very possible for us to have friends with the same name, and possibly even surnames. It would then not be possible for me to add all these friends.
Perhaps a better way of uniquely identifying guests would be a unique phone number, but the group has allowed same phone number for multiple guests, which does not apply in a real-world scenario.
Elaboration of labels
Feature flaw because the application hinders my ability to track guests.
Severity is low, because the chances of having such friends is low, but definitely non-zero. Especially in Singapore where some names are so common. eg. Tan Jun Jie, Gabriel Tan, etc.
