I understand your point that perhaps the map only shows the first 
and last names, but I have three comments: First, as Lupin pointed 
out in PoA, the Marauder's Map doesn't lie.  Second, first and last 
names appear on the map even though they are addressed by either 
their first name only or by Professor ____.  Third, my mother-in-law 
does refer to my husband as "David Junior" even though David Senior 
passed away 13 years ago.  So, I still wonder why the "Jr." was not 
on the map.
