Macciatus / Quince Copy / Ruling

Hey guys,

I had the following situation in a game, and I would like to know, if we interpreted the rules correctly (after diving into discussion afterwards, I feel like we played it wrongly).

-Quince is at max band.
-There is an Illusion Token in Play.
-Macciatus, The Whisperer arrives in Play.
-Quince triggers.
-Announcing the Illusion Token to turn into a copy of Macciatus, The Whisperer.
-Illusion copy stays in play, since it is a copy of the original creature (MTW Original + MTW Illusion Token Copy).

Maybe it is quite clear, but we decided that day that the legendary rule did not apply.

Were we wrong? Thank you for your help!

Yeah, legendary rule prevents that from happening. Can’t have two legendaries with the same name!
