Jr. Kept if Sr. Well Known





Dear Dr. Dave and Dr. Dee,

My husband and his father had the same name and used the titles, Jr. and Sr. Since his father passed away last year, does my husband still keep his Jr. or not?

Signed,

Confused

Dear Confused,

Many keep the "Jr." even after the senior has died if the senior was a well-known person in the community. If the senior was not widely-known, then dropping the "Jr." is fine.
