sufijo


Explanation:
En este caso específico (y sólo en este caso,debido a la explicación dada, que limita el sentido de "title"), yo traduciría "title" como sufijo, ya que va al final del nombre completo: John Smith II, Richard Johnson Jr., etc.

De todas formas, la traducción tendrá que incluir necesariamente una nota explicativa, ya que este tipo de sufijos son desconocidos en las sociedades de habla castellana.
