Namesake को 'नेम सेम' सुनिए: जिसका name किसी और जैसा same हो, वो उसका namesake — हमनाम।
Say NAME-SAKE as 'name same': a person whose name is the same as another person's is that person's namesake.
Exam note
Namesake (same नाम) को doppelganger/look-alike (same चेहरा) से अलग रखिए; pseudonym और homonym भी विकल्प में आते हैं।
Do not mix namesake (same name) with doppelganger or look-alike (same appearance); options may also show pseudonym and homonym.
