Michael Jackson named his son Prince because "Prince" was a family name.. Prince the singer has nothing to do with it..

The name goes back for generations on his mother's side. His great-great grandfather, great-grandfather and grandfather were all named Prince Screws. When his family moved north, the name Screws changed to Scruse. Because Prince III had 2 daughters the name skipped a generation... so when Michael had his own children, he decided to honor his mother by carrying on this family name!!

so Prince the singer has nothing to do with the name of Prince, Michael's child.

He named him prince after his maternal grandfather, Prince Albert Scruse. He had died a few months before prince was born so I guess he named him after him.

Of course he named his son after the artist Prince. Just shows Michaels nerotic jealousy over a TRUE musician. Kinda creepy
