Is it safe to keep "name" and "id" the same in every form element?

This could be basic; but I've not found any satisfactory answer so far. So far, I've been keeping the "name" and "id" attributes in any form in my templates the same; without any issues. I'm doing so with an aim to make the styling simpler. I THINK that the "ID" is mainly used for styling the elements, while the 'name' is the attribute required by PHP to do stuff.

Is it safe, or a good practice to keep the name and id attributes the same in every form element?

Example:

<input type="text" name="yo" id="yo" .....>

Most of the time, yea though I would suggest adding ctrl_ which requires user input, for example a input with name as "user_id" can have id of "ctrl_user_id".
