what does suffix mean on a c.v?

Question

It comes after my family name and i cant find the answer anywhere else plz help

Answer 1

It would be a title that comes after your name (like BSc), rather than a prefix, which is a title that comes before (like Baron, Doctor).

Answer 2

Also the use of Jnr or Snr (junior or senior) after a name is also referred to as a suffix. Seen this used on some databases and application forms when prefix is "Mr, Mrs, Miss, Dr, Rev, etc.)

Answer 3

A suffix written after the family name is usually the abbreviated form for the educational qualification or other honors achieved, such as, Ph.D., MD, MBA, Baronet /Bart.(in Britain), OBE/MBE (in Britain), VC (Victoria Cross), etc.
