When I try that, the buffer name changes in both windows. The
windows are just different views into the one buffer.
The way I usually do that is yank the buffer into a register, open a
new buffer in a new window, paste the register into that buffer, and
delete the empty first line, e.g.,
ggyG
:new
p
kdd
Or you could read the file into the new buffer, e.g.,
:new
:r#
:0d_
