Johnny "J.J." Bannerman, Jr. was the son of Sarah Bracknell and Johnny Smith, though he was raised from infancy by Walter Bannerman, the older brother of Hope Smith, the grandson of Martin Bracknell, Herb Smith and Vera Smith, and the great-grandson of John Smith. His nickname of "J.J." is short for "Johnny Jr.," though he is a "junior" only in the sense that he inherited his given name from his biological father, while he grew up with the surname of his step-father.
Additionally, in the episode "Big Top", it is implied he has the same ability as Johnny. In "Denoument", J.J. gets pushed by Greg Stillson and he has his first psychic vision in the pupil of his right eye and it's also revealed that J.J. and his father Johnny inherited their psychic abilities from Herb.
