When I first started my VV2 I had 2 people with the same name. One was a boy and one was a girl, I think the name better fitted the girl as it was Aisha. Curently I have 2 boys named Popo only 2 years apart, same mother, but different father. I never rename them.
I had something similar, except it was with my VV3. 2 people were named Gata and they were both girls.
