Here is a partial quote from an article in the Christian Science Monitor that I think explains it.

"Baby Doc" Duvalier became the successor to the regime in 1971 when at the age of 19 he took over from his father, "Papa Doc" François Duvalier (indeed, he started off as a physician). As the following five slides attest, Baby Doc's infamy precedes him.

- Stephen Kurczy, Staff writer

I guess since his father was know as the "Papa Doc", it only befitting that he be called, "Baby Doc".

No .... Rob and Jean are not related. Jean's given name is Jean-Claude Van Damme and Rob's given name is Robert Alexander Szatkowski. Maybe Rob took his stage name from Jean-Claude due to the fact that there is a lot of action in both men's characters.
