It is as it may seem; I do not agree with the Sindarin form of the Legolas name. Elves lived a loooonnngg time, so it is very possible that Legolas in LotR and Legolas in the Sil are the same person. I doubt this, but I base this on the fact that JRRT said that Elvish names don't recycle. Yet, I can 'go with the flow' and, be it as it may, I can go either way.
