For a boy, you might want to keep in mind how it'll sound when he's called up to the Torah. I.e. Nosson ben Yonoson might sound a little funny...or you might not care.

my dh is David ben Ishay... every time people laugh 
In the beginning I didn't believe him that his father's Jewish name was Ishai, it was too fun. And yes we do plan to use the name Shlomo

How about if the father is Tzvi and the daughter is Tzivia (called by her nickname: Tzivi) - My friend asked a shaila and was told they are two separate names. No problem.

I know them also 
I know of 2 mothers named Ayala who have daughters named Tzivia (basically mean the same thing) and one of them has a son Tzvi also.
Back in Tanach - Avner's father's name was Ner!

OP here
Thanks for all the replies. I love discussing names. 
BTW, my DH is a ger and one of the names suggested for him by Rav Fisher was ___________ Avraham. But he did not choose that because didn't want to be called up to the Torah as _______ Avraham ben Avraham - it would sound funny and would be a reminder every time that he is a ger (at least that was our thinking).

I knew a couple that the husband's name was Avraham and the wife was Sarah.
Mommyabc- you sure its the same couple? There can't be two couples with the same name?
Oh, btw, I know a couple who's names are Simcha and Simcha.

Does Yonit's maiden name start with a D? If so, then it probably is the same one...

There are people (I can't say for certain if it was a community thing) who will take issue with that. If there is a living ancestor named Leib, they would not name Aryeh. Or Yehuda for that matter. Perhaps its a shtick from some corner of the Hungarian world but I definitely know people for whom that was an issue.
According to most rabbis that I've heard from, though, you can have a menachem and a nachman and a nechama all as one family if it suits you. The actual name is different even if the meaning is the same.

My grandfather is Moshe ben Amram. A gabbi once refused to call him up to the torah because he thought the person giving the name was ,making fun of him!
My brother is Amram ben Moshe Aharon.
