Ferdinand Porsche
the younger
.
That said, at least he brainchild, the 911, is still part of a continual family line stretching back to his 901. The other Ferdinand Porsche would probably be turning in his grave at VW's desecration of the memory of his Beetle, and it's flowerpot on the dash!

I have never understood the act of naming your child after your own name. My cousin did it too. She named her son after her husband. He is also named Matt. At family get togethers there are then three Matt's in the room

That provides some confusing situations.

You are not joking, especially when the waiter brings me a apple juice and not a large beer

That and not only that, but mainly to avoid legal implications and snags that may or may not happen all throughout the life of either or both persons, is why in some countries, like for example mine, the naming of a child after his father is not allowed.
Grandfathers' names may be inherited (
forcefully so, since the child is never asked about it
), and in fact I was given the name of my Grandfather (
my father's father
), but father-to-child is forbidden, not even appending the local equivalent of the Jr suffix or numerals like in a factory, like elsewhere possible.
Just FYI.
There is no such a thing as overkill. Only unworthy targets.
