Miranda Kerr: Flynn Named After Late Boyfriend
Miranda Kerr has explained the meaning of her son Flynn‘s full name.
The 28-year-old Aussie model opened up to The Telegraph about why she chose to name her son Flynn Christopher Blanchard Copeland Bloom, partially after her first boyfriend Christopher Middlebrook, who passed away at a young age.
“Chris and I had been dating for two years,” Miranda said. “After he died, I wrote him a letter that said I hoped to name my first child after him in some way. I told [husband] Orlando [Bloom] and he was the one who said he’d be happy to do that. Orlando’s a good guy.”
WHAT DO YOU THINK of Flynn’s name being a tribute to his mom’s first boyfriend?

I love this!
And Flynn is related to the grandmother of Orlando, they are nice to do that, they are good people
sweet tribute, but definitely a little weird. cute kid.
Flynn will ask about his middle names..so it was nice when there is a story behind the name..my daughter’s middle is Ananya which means ‘unique’ in hindo…I just thought it would have been a nice story to tell..plus its the name of my fave perfume from the Body shop so thats where I got it from originally!! Everyone saids they love the smell!

@Mlef: There’s no link. Flynn’s middle name is Christopher.
Flynn Christopher Blanchard Copeland Bloom
@Waterman : It is only his middle name eh, it probably never will use it!
That is one cute & adorable baby! No surprise considering the parents are both hot! I like the name Flynn. As long as Orlando is ok with the reason behind the name choice then there is nothing more to add. I wish them all the best!

Those things done for love are among some of the most inspiring.
aww how nice of Orlando :)
@Mlef… there is zero link between Flynn and Christopher.. Christopher was her boyfriends name and that her sons middle name… now billy, or bill is to william as jack is to johnathan or john… same with **** and richard…or jimmy is to james…. its just the way it is …
Now Orlando will want to name their future daughter after kate…
Naming a child particially after somebody special in your life is pretty normal as is it to name them after a favorite entertainer or a place significant in your life. Flynn is a cute baby for sure like for example if I named a daughter of mine London Emma London is my favorite european Capital and Emma is my maternal grandmothers confirmation name.
what a cutie patootie! he looks like miranda.
really sweet of her :)

@karen:
They had been dating two years and he was obviously important to her. Honoring him with giving Flynn his name for a middle name is a nice tribute.
What a shame you can’t see it and are so bitter about it. Orlando thinks it is great as does Miranda and their opinions are the only two that matter anyhow.
