Right, I was misleaded by different settings in my various test 
projects. Only forms get an unique name, and this works in Lazarus as 
well as in Delphi.


So the remaining question is: How to assign unique names to dynamically 
created components? Does there exist an immediately usable method or 
function?

Empty names seem to be harmless, but every attempt to assign an 
non-empty and already used name to a component results in an exception.

What's the scope (list of names...), within which every component must 
have an unique name?
