Help[Facts] Fourth Generation male nicknames
Could anyone help us with a nickname please?
What is the nickname for a 4th generation male child? For instance I understand that Trip or Trey is used for the III generation but at a loss for the IV?
Thank you for any help.

I've heard of 'Ivy' being used since its I & V.

Until recently there have been so few "IV's" that a traditional nickname hasn't developed.
But you could use Quad or Delt, short forms of the Latin or Greek words for "four", as Trey is from the Latin for "three". Or if you want to get more exotic, perhaps Ket, a short form of keturi, the Lithuanian word for "four".

No clue! This problem only arises in the USA, and from outside it looks rather odd. However, if it's Trip for John Smith III, why not Quit for John Smith IV?
