Adding to Voronwë's and Bruce's posts. Even if Tolkien were to revise FoG to make it canonical, Legolas Greenleaf would have most certainly been left out. Not just because of added confusion, but because there are no other instances of an elf having the same exact name as another elf. The closest would be variations of names as in Finwë, Curufinwë, and Curufin.
