middle initial. Examples include American football players Terrell Ray Ward Jr. (who goes by T. J. Ward) and Erick R. Manuel Jr., who is better known as E. J. Manuel. Former Major League Baseball player B. J. Upton, whose real name is Melvin Emanuel "B. J." Upton Jr., is called B.J. due to his father's nickname being Bossman. B. J. stands for "Bossman Junior". Common nicknames for a junior or II include "Chip" (as in "chip off the old block"); e.g., President James Earl Carter Jr.'s second son James Earl Carter III goes by "Chip". Another is "Bud" (predominantly in the American South); e.g., Marlon Brando Jr.'s childhood nickname was "Bud". Another alternative is "Skip"; e.g., Harry "Skip" Caray Jr. and Harry Christopher "Chip" Caray III, or "Skip" may imply that the name skips a generation. Common nicknames for a III are "Trip(p)", "Trace", and "Trey" which denote that the name carrier is the third person to carry the name.

Examples include George Virl Osmond and Olive May Osmond, who went by George and Olive while their eponymous son and daughter go by the names Virl and Marie. This convention is more common when father and son have different middle names, such as the former U.S. president, George H. W. Bush, whose son, George W. Bush, also a former president, is common referred to as "W.". Another case is Cuban evangelist Rafael Bienvenido Cruz y Díaz, whose son, also with the given name Rafael, is a U.S. Senator who is known by a variant of his middle name, Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz. Painter Robert Norman "Bob" Ross had a son, also a painter with the first name Robert; in part because of legal issues with Bob Ross's business partners, the son, Robert Stephen Ross, goes by his middle name as Steve Ross.
