As they are both forms of John, they fall under "equivalents" rather than
both being diminutives of a different name.

So Ihone = Eoin = John for meaning.

So, to clear a conflict, they really need to sound different.  Which these
don't.

So, yes.  I'd say "Ihone" = "Eoin" for conflict purposes.

Did you find a conflict?
