Línea de trabajo

Start by reading the existing contact-merge option and tracing where merge-by-name is applied; the issue does not identify files or tests. Check how phone numbers are compared and whether email-based matching is part of the existing flow. Done means users can choose to merge by number instead of name, without combining different contacts that share a name.

Feature description

From what I can tell currently contacts will only merge by name if the option is enabled. This means that different people with the same name can get merged.

I would prefer not to need to add info to the names to differentiate them (Bob 1, Bob 2, etc)

The real unique bit of information is the number (at least in my case, could be email for others). If the merge happens by number then each person is merged at least regarding things like whatsapp/telegram/signal, but the individuals would stay separated.

Why do you want this feature?

Would work better in my use case and I presume for others.
