1) It is written in the Testament of R. Yehudah HaChassid that a man must not marry a woman if the prospective father-in-law’s name is the same as his own. And if he did marry such a woman, the name should be changed.

3) Some say that the Testament was intended exclusively for his own descendants, not for the general public.
