Try this code ;) Have to come out of the second loop after the line has been printed so that the line will be queued out. it can be done using... last; 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

open(FILE1,"abc");
open(FILE2,"def");

  while (my $name1=<FILE1>) {
  chomp($name1);

     while (my $name2=<FILE2>) {
               chomp($name2);
               print "Line1: $name1 | Line2: $name2 \n";
               last;
            }
     }
close(FILE1);
close(FILE2);
