For correct information I researched the Hollies official site, in which it is stated the band admired Buddy Holly and had actually endured several names prior like Guytones and fourtones and incorporating the Deltas.
quote:
How the new band got its name has been a subject of conjecture for decades, and stories are sufficiently vague to convince one that not even the band members remember exactly.
The conventional assumption for many years was that Hollies was chosen as a tribute to Buddy Holly, in much the same manner that the Beatles chose their name as a sort of acknowledgment of the Crickets. But the truth was little more uncertain.
