Last month I got some error messages after creating a customized onet.xml and content types in SharePoint.
One of the error messages was: A duplicate name "Item" was found. After taking a look into the SharePoint log files I found more details:

I tried to create a website based on my custom ont.xml and my custom content types. The reason for this error message was a spelling error in my custom content type:
<ContentType ID="0x010100............08}"
After removing the bracket at the end the site creation process was successful.
