The aspects we want to capture in a name or adjective for these types are:

a) The types have identical implementations or definitions.
b) They are distinct types.

I think “Distinguished Type” or”Cloned Type” best captures these qualities.

I think the following also capture the quality, but feel a bit pejorative.

"Segregated Type"
"Arbitrary Type"
