He is Kṛṣṇa. Simply He has taken the name Kṛṣṇa Caitanya. Otherwise how one could give kṛṣṇa-prema? Kṛṣṇa-prema can be given by Kṛṣṇa. Nobody else.

So namo mahā-vadānyāya, this is the first verse, śloka, uttered by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī when he met Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu at Prayāga, modern Allahabad. Prayāga is also named there. So he offered his prayer like this: namo mahā-vadānyāya kṛṣṇa-prema-pradāya te ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 19.53|CC Madhya 19.53]]).

He understood that, "Here is the incarnation of God who is the most munificent." Mu . . . most munificent. Other incarnation of God . . . even Kṛṣṇa could not give kṛṣṇa-prema. He simply ordered that, "You surrender unto Me." Not that, "You take Kṛṣṇa, love of Kṛṣṇa." No. He did not give. Therefore Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu came.
