ELI5:Why do sons get named after their dads, grandpas etc. and become "Jrs" or "The Thirds" but daughters/women don't??

You just never meet a Merideth Jr or Casey the third, why? Its so common for men to be named after other male family members and take on the role of a junior but its so less common for women.

Comes from inheritance, you named your son after the master of the house to clearly show the line of succession. Women could not originally inherit/own land so there was no need to name them after their mothers who also did not own land.
