Berenstein Bears

You know, as I sit here and watch this show with my son, I have to wonder about ceratain things that have always bugged me. Such as, why do they not have names? Sister, Brother, Papa, Mama..those are not names, those are titles. Even cousin Fred has FRED I mean, really. Teacher Jane has Jane, Lizzie is Lizzie, Millie is Millie, I mean what is up with that?
