If we had Frank Jr. after Frank Sr. ... would we have Frank Jr.Jr. after Frank Jr.? SENIOR-JUNIOR in family?

Question

How do we apply SENIOR-JUNIOR relationship in family then?
Is it only applied on FATHER-SON relationship?
Could we apply that Sr.-Jr. also on MOTHER-DAUGHTER relationship?

Anyway, thanks for any of your feedback...

Answer 1

Frank Jr.'s child would be Frank the third or Frank III. Normally people call this child either Trip or Trey both of which are short forms of three. In my husband's family, there is a continued line of Williams that stretches to his cousin, William V.

I have heard it is possible to do the mother-daughter form, but obviously, once the daughter marries, the last names are different. My husband's grandmother is Mary Ann, my mother-in-law is Mary Ann and my sister-in-law is Mary Ann all with different last names, so there are no juniors or thirds.

Answer 2

It would be Frank Sr., Frank Jr. Frank Whatever III and so on.... Some people prefer to use Frank Whatever II and Frank Whatever III instead of Junior and all that. Usually we never apply these terms for a Mother-daughter relationship. I have probably only seen it once it my life. Hope that was helpful.

Answer 3

The application of the Jr is abitrary and can be applied to any male child named directly as the father to seperate the identities--Once a Jr. applies the Jr to a male child -- they automatically assume the Sr. title---Some prefer to go the route of applying the Roman numeral systems in these situations---the senior being tagged with I and the junior with II and so on.....in these cases the assumation of new tags is despensed with at the addition of further heirs --everyone keeps the numeral they are given---THERE IS NO JR-SR APPLICATION FOR FEMALES--even though-- I suppose-- there is no law that I know that restricts this and I'm sure given the law of averages and the world as a whole and its inhabitants--it has more than likely been done somewhere by someone

Answer 4

Try looking at it this way..Frank Sr... would be Frank I, Frank Jr. would be Frank II, the next Frank would be Frank III...etc. And no, one cannot apply the Sr.-Jr. bit to a mother Daughter relationship.

Answer 5

You can name your children however you feel. But the roman numerals are great, or change the middle name or just the spelling, With daughters, the first name can be the same with a different middle name or add something to the first name, ie Laura, and Laura Lynn, Laura Lee, etc. Have fun with it.

Answer 6

No, he would be Frank, Jr., II

Answer 7

No, you would have Frank III. We have this in our family too.

Answer 8

Let's just make it so. We live in a sexist society where a man can pass his first name on not a woman. Is there something wrong here.

Answer 9

Answer 10
