There are two ways to solve it: In index options on the book report (Multiple Lines)you can select either Birth & Death Years on names or Include Alternative names or select both

John Robert Surname born 1929, son of Walter John Robert Surname born 1939, son of William. When a Legacy book report is saved without birth years in the index, there is only _one_ listing for two people called John Robert Surname. Nicknames or called names in single quotes would be one possible workaround for living people left out of online public databases. In our family, 'Ed' born 1900 and 'Ted' born 1902 named after the same grandfather were in the same country school class one year. They had several other first cousins with the same official name who stayed in the old country.
