I guess finding this hint is supposed to be a riddle of it's own?

It wasn't supposed to be, but you've come a little late. This might help.

Which people in the תורה have the same name?

Example: נחור father of טרח and נחור son of טרח.

Bonus: which name is shared by the most people in the תורה and how many times/ who?
