You guys ever do any genealogy? There are so many places and times in history where women’s names simply weren’t recorded. Census records from the 1800s in the US are like, “John Smith, wife, 6 children 3 male 3 female”.

I would agree for jr and III, but I think by the time you get to IV like op you’re dealing with generational pressure just as much as you are ego.

For at least the last 6 generations in my family there was a tradition of sharing a first name across two generations with different middle names (so there was no actual Jrs). So like Robert James, Robert Charles, Charles Lee, Charles William, William Daniel, William Samuel, blah blah blah. My father was the second William, so to continue the tradition me or my brothers would name a son with our first name.
We all produced girls. So much for that stupid tradition!
