Yes, all these 3 JHXX00 drivers are almost identical. There should be no reason
to name any one of them differently. Having them all be as similar as possible
will make it a lot easier to maintain in the future. If you don't like a
pattern then please change it for all the similar drivers and don't make just
one of them be different.
