MySQL Error 1585: Native Function Name Collision
Description
This error occurs in MySQL when you attempt to create a new stored function, but the name you've chosen is already reserved and used by a built-in, native MySQL function. MySQL's architecture prevents user-defined functions from having the same name as its core functionalities to avoid conflicts and ensure system stability.
Error Message
This function '%s' has the same name as a native function
Known Causes
3 known causesAttempting to use a reserved function name
The most common cause is trying to define a custom function with a name that directly conflicts with an existing native MySQL function (e.g., `CONCAT`, `NOW`, `AVG`).
Unawareness of native function list
Developers might not be fully familiar with the comprehensive list of native functions in MySQL, leading to an accidental name collision.
Accidental reuse of a common function name
A chosen name for a custom function, while seemingly unique, might coincidentally match a less frequently used or specialized native function.
