How to get the original block name of a dynamic block

I am new to lisp routines and I have read the posts, but I can not get the lisp to make both names the same, the anonymous block and the effective block names. I think I am missing something.

Those cannot be the same. It's a physical impossibility if any of the DB parameters are changed from the original definition.

 

That's how ACad works with DBs. When a parameter is adjusted ACad actually makes a "new" block definition, calls it some "anonymous" name and refers it to "point" to the original definition through that EffectiveName property. If you change the Name property back to the EffectiveName then you'd basically be clearing any changes to the DB parameters.
