Yes, it could happen. But names should be and normally are 
transliterated between languages, not translated.

It takes more than just referring to the same person to cause confusion. 
Otherwise these could be confused with (the as-yet nonexistent irises) 
Mrs. Henry II, or Mme. Louis VII, or Lionheart's Mom. LOL
