I was just rewatching episode 426, and at 10:54, Sarutobi (the Third) called
Yamato by his name. That name was assigned by Tsunade after the Third's death.
How did he come to know his name?

How did the Third know Yamato's name?


**In - universe reason :** Tsunade did gave him the name Yamato but it was
never implied that Anbu codename can't be reused. Maybe she used his old name
and third knows it.

**Out-of Universe reason** : Kishimoto must have forgot it due to complex
nature of story, this kind of mistake are not that uncommon in any series and
anime just followed manga and kept it that way.
