A persons name should not be unique #2351

As a address book, users should be able to add two users with the same name

(e.g. 2 person can be called Ryan Tan)

However, this is not allowed(as mentioned in the user guide that a person's name must be unique)D, which is a important feature flaw in the application.

We understand that many people can have multiple names, but we use names as a unique identifier for some commands, hence they must be unique. Furthermore considering Yellow Pages is a personal app the user can input specific things or nicknames that make the name unique in a memorable sense E.g. Ryan Tan (glasses) etc.

Duplicate status (if any):
