    Unique names are generated by adding 'My_exp_' to the old name of the
    column. In case the name that was created this way already exists, we
    add a numeric postfix to its end (i.e. "1") and increase the number
    until the name becomes unique. If the generated name is longer than
    NAME_LEN, it is truncated.

    Otherwise it generates unique name for one item with autogenerated name
    using make_unique_view_field_name()

  RETURN VALUE

    TRUE  duplicate names are found and they can't be converted or conversion
