Is there such thing as "Junior" for females?

LOL. I never encountered a "Junior" female or whatsoever. Your friend might be kidding since she laughed after answering. How could that be possible?

yeah, i know one friend who is a female junior. she has the same name with her mother and that is the reason why her last name always had a "jr." to it.

Hello nykel, There are daughters who also have names of their moms. but this situation never really encountered my head, maybe societies should have a counterpart of junior in females, i mean wow with all the evolution of english language we didn't get to have this part in the woman, and yeah juniora is so wrong

i never heard of a female with a junior name perhaps if they want to follow the name of their child to the mother's name or their grand mother's name then they can use II, III or IV and so on. but not junior. like queen Elizabeth II hehe

There are girls that are named after their mothers but I do not believe that there is a junior for females, Now that I think of it I wonder why not? lol. I have never seen any one use that as there suffix as a woman, I suppose that if females just started using it, may be it may be just as acceptable as when a man uses it! happy mylotting.

Hi, nykel88. I have never known any females resulting from an junior. Only a males name is the only one that is named after his father. But not a female. I do wonder what they call a females name that is named after her mother.

There actually is for females. The word is "little" I had a couple friends actually that had the same name as their mother and after their name was little EX. Marie Rose Smith (mom) Marie Rose Smith Little (daughter)

Yes my friend, The women are so lucky as there is no 'junior' among them. They're all mature. May be because they turn adult soon just after falling into teenage. Have a nice day.

it's the same for both genders. A girl can be "junior" to (not juniora) but it is used more infrequently for females than males.

I have never heard of a Jr. for females, but that doesn't mean there aren't any. I know some people (very few) name their daughters the same name as the mother. That would be confusing. Maybe they use 1 or 11, or big and little. I have a friend with the same name as me, and I am tall and she is short so we are big and little Sandie. I always hated being called "big".

Ha ha ha... Juniora? I don't think I like that to be adjacent with my Last name... Maybe its not true. Never heard of that before.. They always put Maria in the names of the girls just different second name like Maria Theresa or Maria Rowena like that...

mother's name of josie could be baby josie for the daughter. it could also be josie jr. i guess the registrar will not complain if you give daughter the jr. it's your decision so why they will complain, she's your daughter not theirs.

I think your friend just hates to be wrong. Theres not many times parents will give their daughter mom's name that way they do the father's name. I have heard of grandparent's names being given thought. However, a new generation is coming up. Perhaps we can start a new thing there.

I think your friend was putting you on. For some reason, girls are not typically named after their mothers, and if they are, they are never (to my knowledge) referred to as anything resembling "junior". Maybe because traditionally men have liked carrying on their name by naming children after themselves, whereas women traditionally (not always, I realize) change their name when they marry, so they do not get to pass their name through the generations. That's my theory, anyway. I don't know what the traditions are in your country, though, I am sure there could be some cultures where there is some female "junior" equivalent.

there is such a thing as females bearing the exact given name as their mother. i encountered this way into young adulthood so that means not long ago . i read or seen it on tv. a celebrity...it does happen but since the one who carries to pass on the family name is always males then this practice of having a junior oftentimes happen and is chosen to happen to them.

Your friend is right nykel, I meet already 2 mothers who have jra. Bring their mothers name then jra. Like fathers who have their jr.

I haven't seen jra. anywhere, but I've very often heard the word "juniorette" and also in sports, the U-16 and U-18 leagues are called juniorette leagues. It sounds odd but it's true. Juniora is just wrong. Hope this helps :)
