It surprises me that Days so frequently reuses names. There are so many names out there, but they constantly reuse them. (excluding when babies are named for characters)
Most recently, Serena Mason. Back in the 90's, Serena was Diana Colville's mother.
Ian McAllister's mother's name was Yvette. Yvette Dupres was a prostitute back in the late 80's, early 90's.
Ian Griffin, later Ian McAllister
Madison James came in as Sami's former grade school friend. Madison was also the name of the Fake-Jennifer during Jack's escape from the island during the Salem Stalker storyline.
Arianna was a baby Mimi rocked in the hospital nursery one day. Later that was the name given to Rafe's sister.
Megan Hathaway (Stefano's daughter) was a high school classmate and girlfriend of Bo's. She convinced him she had gotten pregnant with his baby and was shipped to Europe to give birth and give it up for adoption. She said she had a little boy. Megan paid a hooker, Diane Parker, for her little boy Zach and told Bo it was their son. It took awhile, but Bo finally figured out everything and reunited Diane with Zach.
Years later, Bo and Hope's son would be named Zack.
Pete Jannings was Melissa's first husband. Peter Blake was Stefano's adopted son.
Max Brady was adopted by Shawn and Caroline. Max was the name of Bonnie Lockhart's dog.
Nicole's father's name was Paul Mendez. Sonny's ex-boyfriend is Paul.
Mike Horton was involved with psycho nurse, Ali McIntyre. Lucas named his daughter Alice Caroline (after her great-grandmothers), but she's called Allie.
Kate Winograd was the woman Bill Horton had an affair with (history was rewritten to say it was Kate Roberts instead). Later Kate Honeycutt was the nurse Stefano hired to take care of Sami and Eric after he kidnapped them (as infants).
Nick Corelli and Nicholas Alamain. Later, the name was used again for Nick Fallon.
Meredith Hudson, later Meredith Jennings.
Tony Merritt, later Tony DiMera
Gabrielle Pascal (Eve's mother); later Gabriella Hernandez
Cassie Scofield, later Cassie Brady
Mary Anderson and later (Sister) Mary Moira; now, Mary the DiMera housekeeper.
Larry Atwood, later Larry Welch.
Tom Horton, later Thomas Banks.
Jack Clayton, later Jack Deveraux (whose original name was Billy, which came after Bill Horton)
Phillip Colville, later Phillip Collier, then Philip Kiriakis
Ben Olson and Ben Walters (organ stealing doctor) and now Ben Rogers
I'm sure there are many others, but these are the names that came to mind.
