I said: Messenger of Allah! tell me if a son is born to me after your death, may I give him your name and your kunyah? He replied: Yes. The transmitter Abu Bakr did not mention the words "I said". Instead, he said: 'Ali said to the Prophet ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4967)
قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ؓ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ وُلِدَ لِي مِنْ بَعْدِكَ وَلَدٌ أُسَمِّيهِ بِاسْمِكَ وَأُكَنِّيهِ بِكُنْيَتِكَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ لَمْ يَقُلْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ قُلْتُ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ

عَلِيٌّ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنْ وُلِدَ لِي مِنْ بَعْدِكَ وَلَدٌ أُسَمِّيهِ بِاسْمِكَ وَأُكْنِيهِ بِكُنْيَتِكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ قُلْتُ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ
ʿAli ؓ said: O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, if I have a son after you are gone, I will call him by your name and give him your kunyah. He said: ʿYes.ʿ That was a concession from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to ʿAli.
عَلِيٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ وُلِدَ لِي بَعْدَكَ وَلَدٌ أُسَمِّيهِ بِاسْمِكَ وَأُكَنِّيهِ بِكُنْيَتِكَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَكَانَتْ رُخْصَةً مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ

سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ أَنْ وُلِدَ لِي بَعْدَكَ وَلَدٌ أُسَمِّيهِ بِاسْمِكَ وَأُكَنِّيهِ بِكُنْيَتِكَ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ عَلِيٌّ «فَكَانَتْ هَذِهِ رُخْصَةً لِي»
"عَنْ عليٍّ قَالَ: قلتُ: يا رَسُولَ الله أرأَيتَ إِنْ وُلِدَ لِى بَعْدَكَ وَلَدٌ أُسَمِّيه باسمِكَ، وَأُكنِّيهِ بِكُنيَتِكَ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ فكانْت رخصةً من رَسُولِ الله ﷺ لَعِلىٍّ".
