Reusing of Sentai names

[KamenRiderSentai]

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.

Ryu seems to be a name that Toei uses often.

Ryu being the Japanese name for "Dragon".

 

[Lynxara]

Names that Toei reuse a lot tend to be really common Japanese names.

 

[Kouji Kabuto]

Kinda like reusing "John". John's pretty darned common.

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)

Well there are only that many names you can come up with lol...

 

[Black Fang]

There's a Kenta in Maskman and Megaranger, a Kai in Gaoranger and Magiranger, a Ryouma in Turboranger and Gingaman, etc.

No Alata, Aguri, Eri, Moune or Hyde in any other series though.

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.

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.

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.
