Is there any benefit to having both? I’m guessing the damage from both don’t stack, and I’m giving my fighter an aberrant Dragonmark with green-flame as the cantrip.
If so, then why wouldn't it stack? Green Flame Blade says the sword does its damage as normal, then you do GFB's effect of damaging someone else. It should stack.

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.

While GFB and a Flame Tongue sword can be used together, keep in mind that you can't combine Green Flame Blade with Extra Attack because Green Flame Blade use the Cast A Spell Action, not the Attack Action even though you make a melee weapon attack when you cast it.

Find your own truth, choose your enemies carefully, and never deal with a dragon.
"Canon" is what's factual to D&D lore. "Cannon" is what you're going to be shot with if you keep getting the word wrong.
Flame Tongue is a rare item, it is not intended before level 5 minimum, but expected before level 10. Those are rough estimates and you’re free to do as you like.
It depends how your rogue plays but using the Flame Tongue will nullify most attempts at hiding. Turning the blade on also costs a bonus action, which will get in the way of their Cunning Actions. Action economy is important! Finally, at level 5-10 a +2d6 fire damages isn’t game breaking. Depending on your setting, a good bunch of monsters have fire resistance/immunity. To use but not abuse of.
Also, if the rogue deals out lots of https://omegle****/ damages, that is normal. It is by design. And past level 5 they are not necessarily the class with most damage output. You can always add an extra monster for the rogue to slay and feel strong while the rest of your party helps with the crowd.
In short… Don’t sweat it. Don’t nerf it. Just learn how to enjoy the ride!

Do you mean Flame Tongue Longsword?

Awesome, thank you. I stack both with the Illusionist’s Bracers so I can use the cantrip twice for maximum effect
You have an extremely generous DM.

I know, that's why I'm using the Illusionist's Bracers so I can use the spell twice as a bonus action
Okay, wanted to make sure since it's a fairly common mistake.

The OP is playing a fighter, not a rogue, so none of that is an issue.
