Note that neither the II nor "Junior" is part of your son's name. Both are ways of saying, "the younger" as a way of distinguishing him from your father and others with the same name in your family.
Ultimately, it is up to you and your father, and evetually your son, how to style him since there are no hard and fast rules, and certainly no laws or regulations on the subject.
If your son is named after his father, he can be called a "junior" if he shares the exact same first, middle, and last name. If he shares the first and last name but not the middle name, he would be referred to as "II" (the second).
Joseph Kruger II's daughter's name is Robyn Kruger.
The sovereign of the kingdom issued a royal decree to address the current crisis.
Princess Isabel of Brazil, acting as regent in place of her father Emperor Pedro II, signed the Lei Γurea (Golden Law) in 1888 which officially abolished slavery in Brazil.
The next king after Queen Elizabeth II is Prince Charles, who is the heir apparent. The fact that he has been divorced does not prevent him from becoming king, as divorce does not disqualify someone from inheriting the throne in the UK.
The African colony that had been the personal property of Leopold II was the Congo Free State, which later became the Belgian Congo. Leopold II exploited the colony for its natural resources, leading to brutal treatment of the local population.
If you want your son to be a "junior", you'll name him after his father. For instance, if his father's name is "John Lee Doe", your son would be named "John Lee Doe, Jr." Then you could call him "Junior" for short.
Senior & Junior are used for direct relation, like father and son. I & II are used in indrect relation as when a boy (II) is named after his grandfather(I). When the boy (II) has a son and passes on the same name, that son becomes (III).
It's confusing so here goes:If the father's father's name is John Smith and has a son they call John Smith Jr., then it makes the son's father John Smith, Sr.If John Smith Jr., has a son and calls him John Smith, Jr., then it's 'John Smith Jr. II, but if John Smith Jr., calls his son Timothy Smith then there is no Jr. II behind it. Junior is only applied when the first and last name is the same of the father of the child.
Senior and Junior are for successive generatons, such as father and son. "II" is used for same name but NOT successive generation such as a grandson.
Let's say I married John Smith and we had a son. Our son would be John Smith Junior (named after his father) then when my son has a baby, his name will be John Smith III (the third) It goes by generation.
His name is Little CJ. And that makes sense because is father's name was Christopher Johnson aka/ CJ. So the son is like CJ II or CJ junior and Little CJ.
When a child is named after the grandfather, rather than the father (in which case it would be "junior," instead of "II").
Yes. "Junior" signifies that the entire name is the same. The only difference is the use of "Jr." If the whole name is repeated, but it's not the son (let's say it's the grandson), then it's II ("the second") and not "junior."
Usually junior
When yu have the same name as your father, you are a Junior (Jr.) When you have the same name as another member of the family that is NOT your father, (you and grandfather have same name) you would become a second (II)
Commonly, if you have a parent whose name is the same as yours, the father's name may be senior, yours may be junior, and your child would be The II. If your mother has the same name, her name would be based off the grandparent's name (Jr if the grandparent's name is a senior), and so on. The II is normally used after the family has been named Senior and Junior of a same family member's name. I could be wrong though, because a junior can be named The II too.
II just refers to the second in his family to have that name. I guess you can say so people wont get confused. Like if my grandfather's name was John Smith and my father had that same name, my name would be John Smith III. ---- A son who has exactly the same name as his father is normally styled "junior," as in John F. Smith, Jr. A third generation with the same name would be styled "the third," written John F. Smith III. (Note the comma before "Jr." but not before "III.")When "II" is used ("the second"), it's usually the case that the second is a descendant of but not the son of the first. For example, John F. Smith has a son named George Smith. Then George has a son and names him John F. Smith. He would be styled John F. Smith II ("the second"), after his grandfather, not his father.
