The most typical thing for artist's to do is name their first album for themselves.
Some artists, waited and did it later in their career. Here are a few:
Heart Genesis Flying Burrito Brothers Collective Soul Poco Beatles (it's NOT The White Album)
Although they didn't use their WHOLE names, the following are close examples:
Martina McBride-Martina Faith Hill-Faith
What else you got?

Also, Duran Duran and Cheap Trick both had self-titled debuts, AND seft-titled albums later in their career.
And Peter Gabriel's first four solo albums were all slf-titled.

Deep Purple Note: Fleetwood Mac's big breakthough (after several mid-charters) was called "Fleetwood Mac", and their '68 Epic debut was also titled "Fleetwood Mac". Also, Ricky Nelson's 2nd album was titled "Ricky Nelson", but his first was simply titled "Ricky". When was that Deep Purple album? Fleetwood Mac was a bigger that I initially thought of the other day and forgot. Elvis did that, but in reverse-Elvis Presley first, second album was Elvis.

When was that Deep Purple album? I believe it was their third one from 1970.

Bette's debut album was "The Divine Miss M", but her second album was "Bette Midler". Then there was her '95 album "Bette of Roses", "Bathhouse Betty" in '98, "Bette" in 2000, and of course last year's "Bette Midler Sings The Rosemary Clooney Songbook".
Also, Britney Spears' third album was titled "Britney", and Barbra Streisand has had several self-titled albums.

Janet Jackson had "Janet" a few years ago, and recently released "Damita Jo" (her middle name). Does that count? LOL!
