New York: Supermodel Miranda Kerr has named her son Flynn Christopher Blanchard Copeland Bloom after her late boyfriend Christopher Middlebrook, who died in an car accident as a teenager.

"Chris and I had been dating for two years. After he died, I wrote him a letter that said I hoped to name my first child after him in some way. I told Orlando (Bloom), and he was the one who said he'd be happy to do that. Orlando's a good guy," she told Australia's the Daily Telegraph.

Kerr also says that her son has inherited his good looks from his actor-dad Bloom, reports people.com.

"He looks exactly like Orlando did when he was a baby. His character is developing every day. He's content and, even though he's teething, you can see he's calm," she said.
