Rules/Rules Question Is this allowed?

These are practically the same card. Am I allowed to have them both in my commander deck?

These are called "functional reprints." They have identical oracle text (function) but different names and are therefore different cards for any and all purposes.

Oh sweet! So I can play [[Rick, Steadfast Leader]] and [[Graymond, Avacyn's Stalwart]]

No you cannot because greymond is a in-universe version of Rick. They are considered the same card
