NAME GAME: Sometimes you just can’t win. . . . Customers of Lincoln National Bank in Encino confused it with infamous Lincoln Savings & Loan of Irvine. Even the institutions’ owners had similar names: John Keating at Lincoln National, Charles Keating at Lincoln Savings. . . . So Lincoln National announced it would change its name to California United Bank. A simple solution? Not exactly. Now it’s being sued by United California Savings Bank of Santa Ana, which won a temporary order this week forbidding the name change.
