jIvati tu vaMzye yuvA

जीवति तु वंश्ये युवा ONPANINI 41163

Descendants from the grandgrandson down are called /yuvan, not /gotra,

if any direct ancestor is alive.

(See **yuvA युवा, **yUnA यूना.)

Exception to < apatyampautr....

So if gargaH गर्गः starts a dinasty,

the son is gArgiH गार्गिः (with /iJ — a putra पुत्र)

the grandson is gArgyaH गार्ग्यः (a /gotra)

the grandgrandson is **gArgyAyaNa- गार्ग्यायणॱ (/yuvan) if any of gargaH गर्गः, gArgiH गार्गिः or gArgyaH गार्ग्यः still lives.

But after they all die, **gArgyAyaNa- गार्ग्यायणॱ becomes gArgyaH गार्ग्यः.

Which is the same thing as saying that /yuvan means "heir to the /gotra title".

The word yuvarAja- युवराजॱ is used in the sense of "heir apparent", which is sorta odd, because a heir apparent is a kind of heir, not a kind of king.
