The point is more, names and bodies are disassociated. Battler could say that Ushiromiya Battler was born from Ushiromiya Asumu, but not that he was, even though he's Battler. This was speculated to mean that there are two Battlers, which means "Ushiromiya Battler" applies specifically in-context to whoever you happen to be talking about.

Kanon is an exception to the malleability of rules. Whoever he is, only he can claim the name Kanon. But that rule is a special case explicitly applied to him. The consequence of that is that, logically, other names are not as fixed.

At least, that would be the theory, and it's a theory most prevalent ideas right now use. It could be wrong, but a solution not using it is tricky, and Beatrice is the one who brought this to the table in the first place, so it isn't wild speculation.
