I’ve got an American colleague who is III/the third, so I guess he’s a Junior Junior.

Ironically, he is significantly more senior than me in both age and on the org chart. You couldn’t make it up.

My brother went to school with an American called Alexander Alexander Smoligovets III

No he didn’t.

He did actually!

  • I’m with Epimer, Aggpass is full of shit. As if there’s a guy called that.
  • Fuck off Epimer, why would Aggpass make this stuff up.
  • Can’t we all just get along?

ah, turns out I do know a junior! changed my answer

Bet he gets called Tripp. I think thats when you’re a third.

There’s a famous [his name] Jr. I don’t think it’s his dad, but it could be.

Ok Wikipedia confirms that the famous person DOES have a Jr Jr son.

Oh my god.

Where’s the III?

I’d imagine he’s dropped it from his academic title, which is reasonable tbh

Or maybe he’s had I and II assassinated, so that he no longer has to live in their shadow, which is just as reasonable tbh

No, but I know a run of Rockys (father, son, grandson) hoping the next in line will be named The Quest For Peace.
