That's not how it works.

Someone defines an interface. That someone must come up with a unique name 
for the interface. Generally, we use our DNS domains reversed to 
guarantee uniqueness. Other than that, it's unnecessary.

But, when you implement the interface, you must implement the interface 
with the correct name.
