Engr. Mr. Jack Dawson, Engr. Jack Dawson

Hi

1: Engr. Mr. Jack Dawson

2: Engr. Jack Dawson

I think both designations are correct. But I don't know which one to use where. I think the #1 will be used when you are required to show more respect. Please let me know your opinion. Thanks.

We don't use 'Engr' as an attributive title. In fact, we don't use it as a title at all unless it is a very specific job title (Mr) Jack Dawson,, an engineer. (Mr) Jack Dawson, Head Structural Engineer or possibly appositively: Head Structural Engineer Jack Dawson.
