In the Japanese (1965) version the protagonist is named Leo, but they changed it to Kimba for the English (1966) release. Back in those days, they always changed the names.

Keep in mind, when Disney does it, it's called a homage.

So Disney stole the content from the original japanese source and the name from the English localization team

They changed a letter from Kimba to Simba and that's it, yes.
