    4. In our society, it is totally acceptable for a man to name his son after himself, giving him the suffix jr or II. What about a woman giving her daughter her own name and giving her the suffix II?

      That seems to be a USA thing to name them the first or second. Guess it makes them feel posh. Keep it up and you could have George Bush the 100th. In The land of OZ we have old George and young George or sometimes big George and little George. But then we don`t try to act posh, we are confident in ouselves.

        You can call a child what you want - but they have to live with it!
