Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
Neil Diamond is a contempory singer/songwriter. Other than sharing the same first name with Neil Young, they are two very different artists. It could be that peoples brains register the first name but aren't listening to hear the 2nd name and they assume the artist being spoken about is the one that they personally are most into.
As for the similarities between Paul and Neil, not sure what similarities you are talking about but you may get a kick out of this article about one being mistaken for the other. Unless people believe their voices or type of music is similar, perhaps its the fact they both have a Jewish background and the names are similar, both first names ending in L and Simon and Diamond almost rhyme except for the last D.
Never let other peoples opinions or their misconceptions spoil your day. It's not something to get all worked up over. Lots of people make silly errors like that all the time, its' called, getting your mouth in gear before you get your brain in gear....or the person pretends to know what they are talking about because deep inside, they are a 'know-it-all' wanna-be.
