World record for longest consecutive generational suffix

I don’t adhere to that rule. My birth name was “Firstname Firstmiddlename Secondmiddlename Lastname III”, and the fact that my father and grandfather are deceased isn’t going to stop me from using it. In the unlikely event that I ever spawn a male heir, he will be named “Firstname Firstmiddlename Secondmiddlename Lastname IV”.

That seems unnecessarily pretentious.

Here in Canada, it’s the same as indicated by RivkahChaya and BrotherCadfael.

If you tried introducing yourself as the Etc. Etc. the IVth here, you’d probably be met with a tight-lipped smile at best, and a sarcastic curtsy at worst.
