I have a son named him after his Dad. The Dad already has an older son and he named ‘Jr.’. So, we named my son ‘lll’ and Dad now uses ‘Sr.’ Did we do this right? —————— – RR. Dear RR: The key thing is to give each son a unique legal name. You gave your son a unique name and that’s a good thing!
To abbreviate name suffixes such as “junior” and “senior,” the first and last letters -- “j” and “r” for “junior” and “s” and “r” for senior -- are written followed by a period. This abbreviation is used when a person’s given name is written in full such as John H. Smith Jr.
The Junior must be a son of the father, not a grandson. The names must be exactly the same, including the middle name. The father must still be living. 'II' is used whenever any close relative, including for example a grandfather or a great-uncle, shares the same name as the child."
A child with a name that varies from a parent's name in middle name only may also be informally known as Jr. (e.g. Francis Wayne Sinatra, son of Francis Albert Sinatra), and his father may be known informally as Sr. (e.g., Paul John Teutul and his son, Paul Michael Teutul).
Someone can use both the “Sr.” or “Jr.” suffix and/or a Roman numeral suffix if they so wish. If our Barnabas Ludwig Johnson II below and his son, Barnabas Ludwig Johnson III, are both still alive, then the former can be called “II” and/or “Sr.”, while the latter can be called “III” and/or “Jr.”.
Jr. is indeed a suffix used to distinguish a child with the same name as their parent. It is typically used for a baby boy who shares his father’s name, while II is used for a baby boy named after a male relative oter than his father.
The suffix “Jr” in his name signifies a direct familial bond with his father, Martin Luther King Sr., indicating a direct transfer of the mantle from father to son. Conversely, “II”, such as Queen Elizabeth II, infers an indirect naming succession.
