Thanks! :)

Everything they borrowed, they gave new names, to make sure they're their own property …

This just isn't true, though. The Peking Homunculi; the Sontarans; Cousin Justine; the Celestis; Chris Cwej; Iris Wildthyme; the Shift; Ordifica; Rex Halidom; Panda; the Remote; the Osirians; Krisztina-Judit Nemeth; Dronid; Laura Tobin and Compassion; Sabbath; Sutekh; Mary Culver. These are just a sampling of the DWU concepts and characters directly licensed by the FP range who appear using their original names.

Yes, there are some names that have been changed, but many of those names are established as alternate titles within the DWU itself, and there frankly aren't that many. Plus, as others have pointed out, many other series (Bernice Summerfield, Iris Wildthyme, Time Hunter, and Adventures in a Pocket Universe, just to name a few) have done the exact same thing. All of this was explicitly stated, almost word-for-word, in the OP.
