Ok I think I have decided on the names but I still need final opinions and I need a Italian last name too.

Wife: Isobelle
Husband: Clarke
Surname: Bramwell

Lover: Julian
Wife: Olivia
Twins:
Boy: Chase
Girl: Belle

Do you think its weird having the baby girl names Belle and the Wife in the other couple names Isobelle?

Thanks everyone

I don't think it's weird. I know someone who's name is Estelle, and her daughter is Estellita.

I don't think it's wierd at all.

I had the same problem in the story I'm writing except it's even more similar--Sam and Samewell.

I ended up changing Sam's name and I kind of regret it because I still see him as a Sam even though his name is now Riley; whenever I think or talk about him I find myself constantly correcting myself...

So what I'm trying to say is it's wonderful and I love the names, plus they aren't as similar as mine. I would change it back but it would be too wierd and Sam is against Samewell's son and I don't think it would work, but your two are good the way they are.

Sorry, I'm rambling on but I had to talk myself through this

Actually it's good to have some names alike in stories. The readers get to know them alot quicker and they become their own seperate entities. It's sort of like Harry and Hermione in HP; they both start with an H, both have the easily recognisable R in there yet they are completely different to the readers.

Writer2be: Give Sam his name back!

Thanks i didnt no if it sounded weird but you prob wont even noticed to the end when the story line comes out that they are similar.

It's a really hard decision!!!! I like his new name too...I think his girlfriend would more likely go out with a Riley than a Sam (yes, she is that shallow), but then again she's going out with a Chet, too...

Good point with the Harry Potter thing...but their names aren't that similar...Gosh, I'm constantly finding myself rambling on these things
