Ok, so, I am currently writing a book and 3 of my characters have the same name as in another novel. I didn't realize it until someone pointed it out to me. The names I picked are fairly common and used frequently in the real world. Is it a problem? Even though the books have absolutely nothing to do with each other? Do I have to change it for safety? PS: The names are: Emma, Oliver and Jacob. Same names as in _Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children_
