I wasn't saying that there was any connection between Buffy St. Marie and the character of Buffy; only that Buffy's name was probably taken from that of the musician because naming daughters after female singers of the 60s seemed to be in vogue in California during the period when Buffy was (theoretically) born. Possibly it might have been meant to say something about Joyce's character, choosing B St M over Cher, or Gladys Knight, or Dianna Ross, but it might simply have been that 'Buffy' makes a much more modern-sounding name than most of the others.
