[stylist] being overwhelmed?

[Angela fowler]

Maybe if you put something in the story, a humorous scene where someone is
confused about the names and gets egg on their face as a result...
Make folks laugh and they'll remember.

I personally think the names will be fine. At first, I did contemplate the
sameness being a problem but then I thought back to a story that I am
writing.

In my story, I actually have a naming convention that I am using that causes
some characters to have similar sounding names.

This is fantasy so make your own call. <smile>
