The problem seems to be because of the typo in clone for named objects. It
should be setting name to "nobj" but instead it sets to the prototype "obj":

╭──────── #475 ─ /lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-base.el ──

│ (cl-defmethod clone ((obj eieio-named) &rest params)
│   "Clone OBJ, initializing `:parent' to OBJ.
│ All slots are unbound, except those initialized with PARAMS."
│   (let* ((newname (and (stringp (car params)) (pop params)))
│          (nobj (apply #'cl-call-next-method obj params))
│          (nm (slot-value obj 'object-name)))
│     (eieio-oset obj 'object-name
│                 (or newname

│                           (let ((num (1+ (string-to-number
│                                           (match-string 1 nm)))))
│                             (concat (substring nm 0 (match-beginning 0))
│                                     "-" (int-to-string num)))
│                         (concat nm "-1")))))
│     nobj))
