Lets say you have a wife named Betty. you have a daughter and you name her Betty after your wife. would she be Betty Junior, Betty the Second, or neither?

The terms Juniour and I and II are distinctly male, and can be traced back to the western concept of succession. Woman were normally not in the line of succession hence no need to number them.

just betty and betty the daughter. in the south a lot of girls go by their first and middle names together like Betty Sue for example. I have lots of friends that are named that way.

she is both but when it's a female they never call her junior or the 2nd, that seems to be a male thing.
they'll probably call the wife betty and the daughter lil' betty

In my brothers family, the little one gets an abbreviated form of the name. In Betty's case, it would be "Bet", or maybe Elizabeth, families are all different. I've never heard the name "Junior" used for a girl though.
