[Opinions] Stagenames!
In one of my older stories (I had written when I was in school), I had a pair of main characters that (after reading the story again) I absolutely adore. I'm thinking about reviving them for a new story, but I'm not sure about their names. In the story, they're singing partners who go by their stagenames unless they're talking to their friends and family "back home" (for some reason, I never clarified where "back home" was).
The first girl (the protagonist)'s name was Erin, and her stagename was Carmen (after the opera). She had black hair, dark olive skin, and chocolate colored eyes. I think she might have been of Indian descent (not native american indian)
The second girl (who ended up being the antagonist) was named Kayleigh (a name I used because it's just too perfect for the character) and her stagename was Marguerite (after the character in Faust). She had golden-blonde hair, porcelain skin, and crystal-blue eyes.
So, do the names and the characters sync up, or should I change them? What do you think of the names themselves?

Kayleigh is nice.
I like them, and the idea.
I'm iffy on the appropriateness of Marguerite. My image of that name is pretty innocent. However, I'm not familiar with Faust so ymmv..
