I don't think so. As long as the residue name is different, ND1 of HIE will
not get mixed up with ND1 of your residue.
In the leaprc file it is defined as

Try adding this:
{ "YA" "N" "sp2" }
That says that atom type (*not* atom name) YA is a type of nitrogen that has
an sp2 parameterization.

I don't think so(?), but do the test. Do you have the same torsion terms for
atom type YA as for atom type N*?
