Is it wrong to name your children “Sister” and “Brother”?
Yes. An author can name a character as he/she pleases, but a parent has to pay attention to what the child would want.
Reminds me of the fellow whose wife was expecting twins. His wife went into labor while he was out of town and out of touch, so his slightly crazy brother took her to the hospital. When he gets back in touch, his brother calls to congratulate him on the birth of his twin girl and boy.
“As long as I was the family member there anyway, I decided to name them,” says the brother.
Knowing his brother’s nuttiness, he starts to cringe as he asks what names were selected.
“Well, I called the girl Denise.”
The father thinks, OK, that’s not so bad. “And what did you call the boy?
“Why, Denephew, of course!”
What I want to know is who in their right mind would name their kids Papa and Mama.

You never heard of someone called Abba Eban or Abba Shual.
