Couple Who Named Child After Bon Jovi Meet Singer

A couple who named their child after Jon Bon Jovi got to meet their hero this week at a concert in their hometown.

Chera and Blaine Miller of Regina in USA named their second child Jovi in honour of the 'Livin' On A Prayer' star.

After reading about the act of devotion in a local paper Bon Jovi arranged for Chera and Blaine to meet him and his band mates backstage at their Regia concert this week.

Speaking of what it feels like to have a child named after you Bon Jovi admitted: "It's humbling to think that you've touched somebody's life for them to make such a kind of an important decision in their lives."

The Millers were overwhelmed to meet their hero saying,

"They walked us into a quiet room, he stood up and walked over to us with a smile," said Blaine. "He said, 'Hi, I'm Jon.' He was genuinely nice."

Fifteen month old Jovi was calmer however with Blaine saying, "He didn't play strange but he was quiet. He's a thumb-sucker so he had his thumb stuck in his mouth the whole time. Jon came up pretty close to him. He gave me a set list for the night and he put a (guitar) pick into Jovi's pocket."
