It can be confusing to use a homograph, because a female archer might not wear her bow in her hair, and shipbuilders do not give a polite bow to a ship.

A homograph is a word written the same way as another word but having a different meaning.

(Example: Bow-hair, weapon and Bow-front of a ship, or to bend at the waist)
