Reusing of Sentai names

Is Toei reusing the same names for the different Sentai shows? For example, Takeru in both Maskman and Shinkenger.

I know there were several other names that were reused.
 
not sure about Sentai, I only remembered reused name in Kamen Rider:
-Jin Keisuke (X Rider) and Nago Keisuke (IXA)
-Kotaro Minami (Black) and Kotaro Nogami (New Den-O)
 
There's a Kenta in Maskman and Megaranger, a Kai in Gaoranger and Magiranger, a Ryouma in Turboranger and Gingaman, etc.
 
I'm not sure about Sentai either, but there are more in Kamen Rider.

Tachibana is often used- Kamen Rider Garren(senior to blade), The old dude in The First in the motorbike shop, Tachibana school from Kamen Rider Kuuga.

Kenzaki/Kanzaki - Kamen Rider Blade(junior to garren), Kanzaki in Ryuki, teacher Kenzaki from the rhino unidentified lifeform arc.

I'm sure there are a few more too.

You forgot the Tachibana's from Hibiki.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that in the case of the name Tachibana, it's probably a deliberate reference to Tachibana Tobei from the early Showa Rider series.
