I never thought of that question until one of my favorite games, What Remains of Edith Finch, had that scenario and it used Edith Sr. And Edith Jr. (But mostly it just used Edie for Edith Sr.)

I think it's less common that it comes up but yeah it seems like it's still just senior/junior

Something got me thinking.

What's the female equivalent for Senior and Junior when Father/Son shares the same name?


This lead me to some fascinating stuff. First:

Quote
Although there are instances of daughters being named after their mothers and also using the suffix "Jr." (such as Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Jr., Winifred Sackville Stoner Jr., and Carolina Herrera Jr.), or after their grandmothers or aunts with the suffix "II", this is not common. Usually, the namesake is given a different middle name and so would not need a suffix for differentiation. Furthermore, once the woman marries, she would most commonly take the surname of her husband and thus do away with the generational suffix. The title "Jr." is sometimes used in legal documents, particularly those pertaining to wills and estates, to distinguish among female family members of the same name.


But more interestingly, what should happen when one dies is something I thought wouldn't effect things, but I was wrong:

Quote
There is no hard-and-fast rule over what happens to suffixes when the most senior of the name dies. Etiquette expert and humorist Judith Martin, for example, believes they should all move up,[4] but most agree that this is up to the individual families.[5]

I’m going to a Taylor Swift concert

I hope you had an awesome time (:
I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps and I believe that our education, like such as in South Africa and the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should—our education over here in the US should help the US, or, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq, and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future, for our children.

I did :) I'm a big fan of hers! Even if you were indifferent about her, the performance was unreal.. crazy production value. Concert was 7-11pm, 1hr of Charli XCX, 1hr of Camila Cabello, and 2hrs of Taylor.

Very fun!

Bartender at the place I ate lunch.
Ball cap, man bun, giant waxed moustache.

Pretty sure I just saw my first hipster.

I don't mind moving. It's the packing and unpacking I hate.
