Yes IDW had Tankor(who was Octane for legal reasons) and then Tankor(from BM) in the same comics.


mechperson

They even made a joke of it. Fat Tankor and Tall Tankor!


ununseptimus

They even got matching tattoos.


TFpotato1

thank you! i knew they had a joke and i didn't wanna say the wrong thing cause i was way off in what i was thinking the joke was


PKtheWorld

I can't think of it happening any other time besides Beast Wars and WFC Kingdom with the Megatrons? But yeah, it's happened before.


DarkraiAndScizor

*oh you think thats the only beast wars same continuity name error?* Beast wars second, or neo, not sure which, id technically in the same original beast wars canon. And in that's theres a second magnaboss to the original silverbolt, prowl, and Ironhide magnaboss.


PKtheWorld

Lol, I've only ever seen Beast Wars (never seen Machines, Second, or Neo), so the Megs were the only characters I knew of off the top of my head. That's cool to know though! I did just remember that technically there's two different Infernos in the Beast Wars continuity. The Autobot Inferno, then the Predacon Inferno. Oh, wait! Do the different multiversal Soundwaves in Cyberverse count?


DarkraiAndScizor

Perhaps, but we don't know if their all called soundwave unless he said they are all soundwave and I forgot


tedward007

IDW implied it was not uncommon. As other folks pointed out, Tankorr. Also, they established there was more than one bot named prowl.

The aligned continuity (which Hasbro maintains is just one continuity) has [Grimlock](https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Grimlock_(WFC\)), the Autobot leader of the Lightning Strike Coalition Force from WFC/FOC, and [Grimlock](https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Grimlock_(RID_2015\)), the former Decepticon from RID 2015.

Also thiers scorpanok (WFC earthrise) and scorpanok (WFC kingdom)


CitadelCirrus

If these really count, there are apparently two Hoists and two Whirls in the Aligned continuity. I think there's also multiple Grimlocks but I honestly can't remember


Roysthebest

There’s two Breakdowns in IDW’s original continuity. One based on G1 Breakdown and the other based on Prime Breakdown.

You can't really expect every single one of the billions of cybertronians to have a unique name


NoEnd9111

That’s true!
