if statements are your best friend in comparision

if UIElement1.Name == UIElement2.Name then
print("identical name")
end

Maybe you can set an attribute for that specific ui? (So you can identify it more easily)
SetAttribute:

Ui:SetAttribute(Name,Value)

GetAttribute:

Ui:GetAttribute(Name)

(You can also set attribute using properties menu)
