: I'm hoping not to curve this educational and fun forum but I
have an arguement to solve with friends.
: Call it a phrase or a technicality but does anyone really know
the truth about what constitutes someones name (phrase)to being
a "junior" vs. 11 (the second).
: I was told that the American rules are not the same as the England
rules. If your first name only is the same as your parent but your
middle name is different then your are a "junior".
: But, if your first and middle names are the same as your parent
then you're considered 11 (the second).
: Please help. And forgive me if I pivoted too far.
Neither the term 'junior' or 'II' are used in the UK and if there is a rule it is 'don't use that silly American expression'. I sould say that if you refered to a yound person as '******** junior' they would construe it as a term of abuse and punch you on the nose - in impolite society such as down in the public bar at the 'Dog and Duck' pub.
Hope this helps.
