It’s a third baby boy for Bear Grylls and wife Shara! The couple welcomed son Huckleberry Edward Jocelyne Grylls on Thursday, January 15th in the UK.
Huck, as they plan to call him joins big brothers Marmaduke 'Duke', 2 ½, and Jesse, 5.Bear's real name is Edward Michael

I LOVE it!!!I have such a crush on Bear! lol, *sigh*I love the name Huckleberry, and I adore Jocelyne on a boy, any spelling! Edward is also one of my most favorites!While Marmaduke is nothing I ever thought of for a name, it's cute, even if it does remind me of a large white dog. Duke is cute.I hate Jesse though, ew.Huck, Duke, and Jesse are so great together!

Huckleberry is actually really coolI don't think I would ever use it, but props to them for doing so.And Jocelyn on a boy makes me really happy :D

I think they should have just went with the name Huck. Huck Edward. Jocelyn is better on a girl to me. Im not a fan of Marmaduke. They could have just went with Duke IMO. Jesse just seems like the odd man out in style when they go by their full names.However, Duke, Huck and Jesse don't seem bad together.I like watching Bear Grylls show Man vs Wild.

Jesse, Duke and Huck sound great as siblings.
I love Jocelyn on a boy. The rest, I don't like at all.I thought his real name was Bear Grylls when I saw him on Man vs. Wild. I'm sort of glad to see that it's really Edward Michael.

Oh yuckI can't imagine going through life as Huckleberry. At least he can go by Huck. Jocelyne isn't the most manly mn so I'd prefer it to be paired with something classically masculine like William or James. Huckleberry Edward Jocelyne is a little bit awkward (and really long). Huckleberry Edward or Edward Jocelyne would've been better.

I'm just not a fan of the name. I've never liked Huckleberry or "Huck" for that matter. I just think it sounds silly and it makes me think of Huckleberry Finn. Edward is okay. As for Jocelyne, I think it sounds way too feminine, and the "e" on the end looks out of place and extra feminine. Jocelyn would have been a little better. Maybe they're honoring a female family member?

Jesse? Wow. I'm cool with giving kids names that are over the top (different strokes for different folks), but for some reason it really irks me when people throw in odd names- ie, Seraphina with Violet, Anne, Elizabeth and Rose. Consistancy people!! /rant That said, I'm not terribly fond of the name, but Huck is a cute nickname, and if he decides to grow up to be an accountant, he can alwyas just go by Edward.

While I don't think Huckleberry Edward is bad, I dislike Jocelyne on a male, especially with that spelling. I tend to like the name Marmaduke as well, just not on my own child. By the way, who are these people? I have never heard of them.

His show is Man vs Wild. He is a professional survivor guide. He does a show on how to survive in the wilderness.

Cute! Huckleberry is growing on me. It's nice to see Jocelyn on a boy even if the spelling is weird. I love Bear too, shame it's not his real name.
