One name. Several lives?
A shared name invites a closer look. The register and the stories determine what can be connected.
Keep reading ↓Continuous identity
This person is followed through documented appearances within a compatible local chronology. Their appearances can be read together where the sources establish the connection.
Central identity across branches
A single source identity has local biographies across several continuities. The register connects them while keeping their stories separate.
Branch variant
A name is deliberately reused in another local story. One variant’s profession, family, and experiences do not become the other’s.
Canonical namesake
Two people share a name. The sources identify them as distinct: a matching name is not enough to give them a shared life.
