Let me /tell you something ...

A problem arises when you have two players with the same name being matched together. Who gets the /tell? o_0

/tell Adam Fylrmyn (Behemoth)
/tell Adam Fylrmyn (Cactuar)

...Or you could just take the advice and switch to shield oath or not stand in AoEs?

Still, you would need to either guess or ask them which server they come from. Asking people for their server to have a private chat would be pretty obvious that they did something. The other two members might get tensed because they don't know what's exactly going on. :0

When people with the same name are paired together, DF automatically adds number suffixes to differentiate them. The naming circumstance is a nonissue in this context, and I've honestly always hated the inability to send tells while bound by duty.

THIS is what the real problem is. If people didn't flip out when they get called out and were able to accept constructive criticism, you wouldn't care that you can't send tells in duties. Ego is the problem, not the game's mechanics.

Oh, that's pretty cool. I've never seen it happen, but some people in my LS mentioned it before when it happened to them. They must have omitted the suffix part when talking about it. O:

if there is something amiss I will let someone know. wrong stance (cleric,sword) no fairy or no buffs. most hte time people go oh shit ty. and move on with the run. Can we not assume everyone that tells people these things is trying to be a ass?

It's not always immediately obvious, because it shows as something like Kin2. I've seen it once before, but I honestly didn't know what it was until much later.
