This is called the Legend Rule. If a single player controls two or more cards with the exact same name on the battlefield with "Legendary" on those cards' type lines, that player chooses one of those cards, and then puts the others into their owners' graveyards. This also applies to cards that would copy a legendary permanent. (See rule 704.5k)

Example: The Legend Rule would not apply if both my opponent and I each controlled creatures named Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius. However, if I cast the card Clone and had it enter the battlefield as a copy of my Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind, I would have to put one of those two into their owners' graveyards.

Note: This rule is similar to the Planeswalker Uniqueness Rule, wherein if a player controls two or more Planeswalkers with the same name on the type line (not the name line), that player must put all but one of those Planeswalkers into their owner's graveyards. (See rule 704.5j)
