Is there a classification for a daughter named after her mother as 'Junior' is for a boy named after his father?

I used to work with a woman called Ann. Her grandmother started it all; she was Ann, had a daughter, named her Ann, and they became Big Ann and Ann. Big Ann's daughter Ann in due course had a daughter and named her Ann. Big Ann, Ann and Little Ann.
My colleague was Little Ann. She was six foot in her socks, and had grey hair like a potscourer which stood up a good extra three inches; what's more, she usually wore high heels.

So the answer to my question is:
There is no classification for a daughter with the same first name as her mother??

Or, to be more clear
If Jane Doe has a daughter, and gives her both the surname Doe and the fn Jane, then the daughter could be called Jane Doe II.
But if Jane Doe has a daughter, and gives her her own name, but the father's surname, then Jane Smith (the daughter) couldn't be called Jane Smith II, because there isn't a Jane Smith I (married names don't count).
Junior doesn't apply to women in any case other than possibly a nn. The next-door neighbour on the cartoon King of the Hill calls his daughter Connie Con Junior, obviously because he wanted a son.
Hope that's a little more clear!
