Hmm, perhaps. I'll give that a shot

You will just have a lot of them running around in town LOL

If it does work you could just give them all different names and delete the ones you do not pick while editing the household in manage worlds

Nope... Doesn't work. I had 10 Nancy Holders (from the household maxis created with the pack, the Back of the House Flair household from maxiscreator_01) and the game didn't show her as an option for waitress, just chef and host.
