Sequenced Child Tags for Relay Contacts

I'm looking for a way to number my Child contacts with respect to their order added and their pin listings.  For example lets say I have a 2 Pole Relay with two C-Form contacts.

 

I have my parent named with the standard AutoCAD Electrical tag CR1.

 

Now I want my children to be linked to this parent and have names such as CR1-1 and CR1-2.  Doesn't necessarily have to be in the tag but I would like this information to be automatically generated when I link my Child to it's parent in a schematic.  I am trying to implement new drawing standards based off of AutoCAD Electrical functionality so if you have some alternative methods you company uses I would be open to suggestions.  

 

The real problem is we don't always use the same Relays/Relay Socket depending on our stock in the back.  I would like an extra bit of information, besides the pin numbers, that can tell my guys in the back where each contact should be hooked up.

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Kyle
