Ner begat Kish. There are three genealogies of the house of Saul. We place the facts, (1) that persons often had two names (1Ch_8:34. Jdg_6:32, &c), and (2) that the same name recurs in the same family, against the assumption that the opposite is the case. It is this assumption which creates the difficulties in "reconciling" 1Sa_9:1; 1Sa_14:51; and 1Ch_9:38.
