Abu Bakr is a generic kuniyat with Bakr meaning virgin and from what I read online Bakr is normally name given to the oldest child. You are free to speculate that Hasan was impressed from Abu Bakr despite Abu Bakr’s treatment of his mother and even self regret from the former on his deathbed. I will be speculative too and say that Hasan named his son in the memory of his adoptive brother, the great Mohammad bin Abi Bakr.

So when the original Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (RA) passed away, his “great” (as you put it) son Muhammad bin Abu Bakr was adopted by Sayyiduna Ali (RA) … and in the honour of his adopted brother’s father, Al-Hasan (RA) named his own son Abu Bakr ???

Still very specific to me !!!
