Have a bonus, secret tip. Just for you for scrolling this far.
Don't make your character names too similar. Humans are hardwired for pattern recognition and don't actually read every letter in a word, only the first couple and last couple. So if your main character is Stephen, his best friend is Steven, his enemy is Stevie, and his princess is Stephanie, the reader--and agent--is going to get real confused real fast.
