I have to admit..
that I was actually GLAD to see a celebrity name his child Buster. Reason being, Buster is my ex's name. Well, his name is really Kenneth, but he has gone by Buster his entire life. I was always embarrassed by it. And then when that celebrity couple (whose names I can't even remember right now, and I don't feel like going to look, but I do remember when they chose the name)---where was I?--right, when that celebrity couple chose the name, I was somewhat charmed and Buster suddenly took on a small amount of appeal for me. A small amount. It suddenly seemed sort of--charming I guess, like it's deliberately uncouth and rough, and that has some charm. Sorry to overuse the word charm, I just can't think of a better one. So I hope that little Buster lives a long and healthy life and likes his name!

at least your Buster...Had an actual, perfectly reasonable official name and wasn't just handed Buster, which on its own sounds as if the parents just threw up their hands and said "Oh, who cares?" ther names in this style include Buddy, Boomer, Sissy, Missy, Sonny and Honey.
