Change her name but keep some relationship to the original.
I was named by my bmother after her sister (first AND Middle name). When my bmother found out she was dying, she asked this sister to adopt me. I was legally adopted and they changed my last name to my adoptive aunt and uncle's last name - now there are two women 35 years different in age, but with the exact same name.
I went though life as little Alice or Alice Louise or some silly diminutive and still have to query confused callers who ask for Alice H**** as to whether they want "Big Alice or Little Alice". The only good thing is that my mother has better credit than I do and her credit report gets regularly dumped into mine!
