IIRC, the name 'Brad' was applied by fans to the character when he was first shown but before the 'Flash Sentry' name was officially revealed by Hasbro. As others have said, it was a response to him being the typical square-jawed romantic interest and may also have been a reference to the equally stereotypical male protagonist in the very risqué stage show The Rocky Horror Show.
