I think the easiest way to achieve what you need is to create the 
symbols you save in a specific context, that is put a 
Begin["notebook1`"] at the beginning of notebook 1 and corresponding 
lines to the other notebooks. The Save then should save the variables as 
notebook1`abcd and notebook2`abcd respectively. When loading the saved 
files, you of course need to refer to the variables with the full long 
name, that is notebook1`abcd and notebook2`abcd.

Another possibility to achieve what you want is to switch namespaces 
when you _load_ the files. Then you do not even need to recreate the 
saved files that you allready have. This would be something along the lines:

Begin["n1`"]
Get["tmpfile1"]
End[]
Begin["n2`"]
Get["tmpfile2"]
End[]
(*example: compare two results: *)
n1`abcd == n2`abcd

I have not tested any of the suggestions but am very positive that you 
can get things running this way, still you might need to experiment a 
little to get it work.

hth,

albert
