EN: having the same name; being namesakes
When you're at Starbucks and they call your name, but someone else gets the coffee. 'Ay, magkatokayo pala kami!' It's the original identity theft, but with more caffeine involved.
From Tagalog 'magka-' (to have, to be with) and Spanish 'tocayo' (namesake).
This refers to people who share the same first name.
