depends on the region then. Where I live - neither english nor spanish speaking region - I've never seen Elisabeth and Isabel being used on the same person. (And Isabella is even more different)
To me, Mary and Maria or Alice and Adelaide look much worse and a lot more similar, in these cases I can understand.
However f.ex. I don't see James and Jacob as the "same name", or John and Jack or Nancy and Anna or Louis and Ludwig or Guillaume and William ... they already sound to different one from another.
