The term "John Doe" is used as a placeholder name for unidentified male bodies in legal contexts, while "Jane Doe" serves the same purpose for females. The origins of this naming convention date back to English legal cases in the 14th century, where "John Doe" was used in fictitious legal actions. It helps authorities and the public refer to unidentified individuals in a standardized way while maintaining a degree of anonymity. This practice has continued in modern legal and forensic settings.

What does the III mean in someones name?
Normally the III means that "John Doe III's" father and grandfather are named (grandfather) "John Doe Sr." and (father) is named "John Doe Jr.". Which would change their names to "John Doe I" and "John Doe II" when "John Doe III" is named. The naming can also skip a generation or even a nephew or grandnephew can continue the name.

What is difference between John Doe Jr I and John Doe Jr II?
This is not the way these naming conventions are used. That would never be a John Doe Jr II. John Doe is the first person in a family to have that exact name. John Doe III is the third person in the family to have that name. John Doe, Jr., is the son John Doe; he may NOT choose to be Sr even after the older John Doe has died. Depending on the history of the family, the person being called John Doe, Jr, could be the fifth person (or some other number) in the family to be named "John Doe," and therefore could also be called John Doe V. If that were the case, John Doe, Sr., could also be called John Doe IV. But you NEVER mix the Jr/Sr/II/III naming with numbering at the same time. II is ALWAYS when naming after a relative like an uncle or grandfather and a Jr NEVER becomes a II nor does he ever become a Sr.
