The same display name for several versions of one iPhone App

Can I assign the same display name for several versions of one iPhone App. The game, I’m finishing now, has 4 versions:

The name displayed on the springboard is pretty long, and it barely fits the space under the icon. One more char and it would be truncated. So if I add any suffix (i.e. “HD”, “free” or “HD free”) it would be unreadable.

My question is: Will Apple reject my apps if I assign the same Product Name (which would change Bundle Name and Bundle Display Name) and make different icons indicating the version?

I guess somebody have tried to do this before.

Thanks in advance.

You can easily use same display name for several versions - tested.

I had several sister-apps in App Store and they all shared same display name (and different icons). They were merged into one app later but answer to your question is: it shouldn't be a problem.

Just make sure this will not confuse your customers.
