this is a living relative so cant post names but on ancestry there are 2 children with same first middle and last names same mother maiden name same reg district but 1 is july 1994 and the other is feb 1997.

just had a thought parents didnt marry until 1995 so assuming first entry is correct the child was born before parents were married so could the second entry be a re-registering after the marriage and another child was born in oct 1996 making a feb 1997 birth seem impossible.

thoughts and suggestions please

its ok just found another child born 1992 with another entry for feb 1997 so they must have re-registered the 2 oldest children after the marriage.

I wouldn't be surprised if the 1992 cert was indexed under both parents' surnames (there'ld only be one cert, so both index entries would give the same ref info).
