That is most likely due to your current JoomSEF configuration.

If this relates to content, make sure that the URL consist not only from category name, but also section name. This can be set in JoomSEF / Manage Extensions / Content.

Alternativelly, you need to switch off prevention of numbering (Number duplicate URLs URLs, so the URLs for the two categories would be then:
1. somedomain.com/category
2. somedomain.com/category-2
(this is set in JoomSEF global configuratio or also at component - extension - level)
