Onomatology

BFF: An abbreviation for "best friends forever".
Travis: Derived from the word "traverser" or "to cross".
Scott: Originally given to a person from Scotland or a person who spoke Scottish Gaelic.
Liberty: From the English word liberty, derived from Latin libertas, a derivative of liber "free".
Lee: Derived from Old English lēah, meaning a meadow or forest clearing. Alternatively, the Chinese or Korean surname.
Summer: Derived from the word for summer, the warmest season of the year.
Holiday: Derived from the English word holiday.

Despite the family bio and household name hinting that the three members are close, they are only acquaintances.
They share their names and appearances with three Sims from the MySims series: Travis, Summer, and Liberty. The name of their home, Garden Essence, is a reference to a game mechanic from many installments in the MySims franchise.
Unlike most Sims in The Sims 4, the members of the BFF household are not on the first day of their life stage when first played. All three are 23 days away from becoming adults, whereas other young adults have 24 days before their next birthday. This also happens with the Spencer-Kim-Lewis family, and it is unknown why this is the case.
- When infants were added in patch 142, the different lifespans were adjusted to accommodate. Now, the young adult stage lasts 28 days. However, the members of the BFF household start the game at 27 days away from becoming adults, so they are still not on the first day of their life stage, oddly.
They may be a spoof of the main characters from the American 1970s sitcom, Three's Company. They may also be a reference to the characters of famous Archie Comics from the 1950s because of the household's description and their resemblance to the characters, with Travis resembling Archie, Summer being depicted as Betty, and Liberty as Veronica.
