    I find them a little bit , I mean, cute for children, but have fun making it in the adult world, Buddy Bear Ah well, different strokes and all. It's nice they had a boy, they're a pretty big family now...and mmmm imagine the food they'd eat!

    At least he can go by Maurice when he's older!

    I kind of like them all, even Buddy Bear!

    PZ Im with you. There are a couple celeb kids names I dont get like Pilot Inspektor *face palm*.
    Not a fan of Jamie Oliver's kids names personally, but their kids, their choice.

    I like them all. I think Buddy Bear is awesome. If he wants a conservative name later he can always use Maurice.

    congrats to them! didnt even know they were expecting another little bundle. I actually love their childrens names - Buddy is a lovely name too. I had a giggle though cause one of the teddy bears on play school is named Maurice. I'm not too fond of the bear part but who am i to judge?? They have a famous dad no matter what their names so its probably less odd iykwim?

    I think I like it so much because we're always calling Sam "buddy boy".

    They certainly are very original,and I think they're cute....for now, while they're little. But what about when they're 65....Granny Daisy Boo...Sergent Buddy Bear?? LOL of course depending on their paths in life, but how could you take someone seriously with names like that, what if they end up being barristers or others in professions that are rather serious....I guess that is just my own stereotyoing though!

    Imagine if they got together and had a few kids with Bob Geldof and Paula Yates.

    The names are not my style, but hey, they are not my kids so it doesn't matter what I think!

    I guess Buddy may get 'Bud' as a nickname. Sounds great with Petal! They just need a 'Leaf' now!

    I also didn't know they were having another bub - good on them!

    Yeah -Imagine the smirks in the doctors when 'Mr Buddy Bear Oliver' is called out - oh dear. I think the girls first names are lovely, but he combos are a bit out there. But, as said, each to their own!

    I've never been to a Drs where they call out your middle name. I don't recall going to a Dr that called out first and family names.

    Having Buddy as a name worked out ok for Buddy Holly.

    Well my doctor always uses first and last name (the locum usually pronounces it wrong haha) - but yeah, the middle name probably not - it was just an exagerated example - making light of the topic.

    Really, you learn something every day.
    Just goes to show what a great name it is - he chose it instead of having it foisted upon him

    ETA - yeah, Bear Grylls is called Edward but he chose Bear instead. I think he's kinda sexy. Does anyone else? He lives on a house boat and his wife home-birthed there. I like the cut of their jib.

    I call my youngest Drew Bear or Buddy Bear Drew, I think it's cute. It's not like he will use his middle name in his day to day life.

    I did toy with using the middle name "trouble" or "danger" for DS2 but got talked out of it
