As well-trained as I am by my mother, this is actually a rule I didn't know. I completely understand someone keeping their "number" designation in deference to their predecessors. To be honest, I would think it kind of strange for someone to be "the 3rd" his whole life and then make the switch to being "the 2nd" at some point because his grandfather died. Seems a bit morbid, actually. (and changing all your IDs, credit cards, etc., ugh, headache
