Nope. They were going to call it Sons of Beaches but decided against that. Jon was inspired by the patch on his jacket and the other guys liked it. It had nothing to do with the competition. Keep in mind Bon Jovi was pretty much the biggest act in the world at that point and it was fairly well known that they were not LA based. They were the act that everyone else was emulating.
