Orbi AC300

I have a Orbi AC300 (RBK50-100NAS) with a single satellite. My question is in regard to naming.

The Base Station is named 123 and the Satellite is also named 123

 

My question is... should BOTH the Base Station AND Satellite(s) be the "same name", or should they be named differently?

 

THANKS in advance!

The entire Orbi router and satellite system is designed to share the same name, so you can roam throughout the home and seemingly switch to another satellite.
