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

    Buddy Franklin is a pretty manly man. I think his name suits him just fine as an adult. I can imagine a high court judge called Buddy. And Daisy is such an old name that it is perfect for a granny.

    I don't think a name makes a person, i think i person makes a name.

    Yes his name is Lance, he wasn't born Buddy, but it is still the name he is called most often and i think it suits him.

    I like their names. I wouldn't pick them for my own kids but for some reason celebs seem to be able to pull it off so I say more power to them ...

    and I agree, imagine the food those kids would get to eat. Now I have food envy

    Aww i think they are cute, i'm sure it's not often he will be called by his FULL name and Buddy is fine for an older child or adult i think.

    IMO they do seem OTT when said all together but yeah it's not often they will be called by their full names.

    Hmmm, the jury's out for me about Buddy. My DH calls both our boys 'buddy' as a kind of nickname - ie, "what have you got there, buddy?" - but I can't say I'm in love with Buddy Bear. I don't mind the girl's names though. But, I'm of the school that it doesn't matter a damn what I think ... as long as they're happy. And heck, I guess Buddy Bear can always change his name by deed poll when he's 18. And besides, they could have called him Buddy Rabbit ....
