ROTFL!

in reply to a message by Pavlos
One of my good friends is a III, and his full name is a bland generic thing along the lines of "Peter Matthew Johnson III". That always cracks me up! I wonder why his family thinks that such a boring name, undoubtedly borne by countless Americans, is worth preserving for three generations!Disclaimer: my friend's name is not Peter Matthew Johnson, of course, but you have to take my word that his real name is as boring as that.~ Ivayla,

With all due respect to those who use roman numerals, they do seem quite pompous and contrived!
