Object Name
 

You can't have a duplicate, Excel won't allow it.

Object Name
 

Excel doesn't allow duplicate sheet tab names. Are you trying to assess a
proposed name?

Activesheet.Name will give you the sheet tab name.

Object Name
 

To check if a worksheet name exists, you can use...
'==============================================
Public Function SheetExists(sName) As Boolean
' Returns TRUE if sheet exists in the active workbook
Dim x As Object
On Error Resume Next
Set x = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(sName)
If Err = 0 Then SheetExists = True _
Else SheetExists = False
End Function
'==============================================
