Other times I was ok was when a legacy character assumed the mantle and kept the name, Wally West Flash and Laura for example. I think they earned it and it fits better than any other (unpopular opinion, I prefer Wally to Barry).
Other characters... I'm not a fan. I don't like having 2 people named Spider-Man or Hawkeye etc.
