You're apparently using the "VLAN_NAME_TYPE_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD" naming policy, which causes name clashes when you create two VLANs with the same ID.
I'd suggest to use iproute to create the devices, which allows you to specify the desired name manually. Alternatively you can use vconfig and a different naming policy.
