If you name your son after his grandfather, the grandfather is living, and no other male in your generation or your son's has an identical name, then your son can be called Junior. If the grandfather is not living, it is not appropriate to call your son "Junior," but you could call him "the second" or "the third", etc., as your family history indicates.

∙ 13y agoIf your grandfather was John James Jackson and you name your son John James Jackson, then your son could be called John James Jackson, Jr., if there is no John James Jackson in your generation of the family, if there is no older cousin named john James Jackson, and if you and your son want to use the suffix, Junior. Junior will not be part of his name, but an addition used to distinguish him from the other John James Jackson, his grandfather. He could also be called John James Jackson II, if you or he prefer.
If there is an older John James Jackson, say an uncle, Then the uncle is Jr, or the second, and the only option for your son is to be John James Jackson III.
If you name your son after his grandfather by naming him John, but us a different middle name (say Abel), then he has a different name and will not be a Junior or a Second, etc.
If your son has a different last name than his grandfather, then he will never be a Junior.
If you or your son don't want to use the "Junior" suffix, etc, there is no requirement to do so.

If a junior has a son what does senior become?
If Jason James, Jr., has a son named Jason James, and Jason James, Sr. is still living, the grandfather can continue to use the suffix, "senior." The grandson, cannot be called "junior" because his father still has that suffix, but the grandson may be called Jason James III, if the grandfather was the first in the family to be called Jason James.
When senior father dies does junior son become senior?
AnswerNo, because if you were talking about the deceased person, you may get confused, just the way you would if you were alive. I think when they get the junior or senior added to their name, it's permanent, except it's not written on their birth certificate.

How does a son become II?
There is no legal ruling on this, but the following format is the one that is most commonly used. In all cases, the names must match exactly (that means first, middle, and last). If a son has the same name as his father, that son is a Jr. If a son has the same name as his grandfather or uncle, that son is a II. If a son's father is a Jr. or a II, he is a III. Sometimes II is used instead of Jr., but that is not common (and to some interpretations not correct).
Does the order go Sr Jr 1st 2nd or is Sr considered 1st and Jr considered 2nd?
The system of referring to people who have the same name as Junior and Senior is completely separate from the system of numbering them as first, second, third, etc. The two systems cannot be used together. If a grandfather, son, and grandson are all named Joseph, then Grandfather is Joe the First, son is Joe the Second, and grandson is Joe the Third. If there is a great grandson, he can be Joe IV. These numbers apply forever. The alternative is to call Grandfather Joe, Sr., and son Joe, Jr. There is no title available in this system for grandson as long as Joe, Sr., is alive. And when grandfather dies, his son need not continue to be Joe, Jr. Indeed if son produces a grandson, then son can become Joe Sr., and grandson can be Joe, Jr. In other words these titles can change with the changing circumstances of life.

Is a grandson of the same name as his father and grandfather named the 1st or the 3rd and why?
I found out on my own: when a grandson is born & is given the same name as his father who is ' Jr. ' & his grandfather is ' Sr. ', the baby becomes the ' III ' , the father becomes the ' II ' & the grandfather becomes the ' I ' . While the above may hold true is some cases, it is perfectly normal for the grandfather and father to maintain their "Sr/Jr" titles and for the son to be given the III title. My grandfather was Michael Sr. My father was Michael Jr. and my little brother was Michael III.
