It may be on the divorce decree ( yes, it is) but it is not correct.

Perhaps Stanley Ann thought II sounded more la di da than Junior.

Again, Jr. refers to a son named after the father. The II is reserved for a male child with the same name as a grandfather, uncle, or some other family member usually living in the same household. Obviously the family didn’t have an etiquette book or the social register to refer to.

Perhaps the rules are different among the Luo ethnic group in Kenya?
