Honestly, I'd find it irritating. I like having an unusual name, mostly because I always know that if someone calls my name they're looking for me. I don't know how the six Stephanies in my undergraduate chapter put up with it!

This is totally off-topic, but my (married) cousins are Ken and Barbie. Seriously.
But, on the topic, I've definitely seen a Chris/Chris couple. I don't think I'd have a problem with it personally, but it would be weird for a guy to have my name as a first name.
What do y'all think - for heterosexual couples - if the woman has a male-sounding name and the man has a female sounding name. For example, I know a woman named Brian (pronounced breeAHn) and a man named Kim (short for Kimble). They aren't actually together...but what if?

When I lived in AZ, I met this newly-wed couple through a friend of mine, and their names were Erin and Aaron. People kinda called them "Erin/Aaron squared"
They seemed to have no problems with it

I knew a couple by the names of Daniel and Danielle once. Thankfully, when they had children, they named them Tara and Elizabeth. No dumb variations of their own names.

Speaking of Stephanies, my friend dated 5.... IN A ROW. Yes, they go by numbers, and know this since 2 of them hung out in a group before.
I don't think I could date a Phillip. Or someone with my brother or father's name.

I just had this conversation with some people last week. My name is male, so I would not want to go out with a guy who has the same name as me. The name would make us sound like a law firm.
