There was no Civ 3.  Only the original Civilization and the final,
authoritative Civilization II.

Bah!

There was "Civilization" and "Advanced Civilization", created by
Avalon Hill in 1981 and 1991 respectively, and nothing better using
that name has been created since.

(Well, there was one of these new-fangled 'video-games' released in
1995 based on "Advanced Civilization" and sharing the same name. But
I'm pretty sure these 'video-game' things are just a flash-in-the-pan
fad that aren't going to stick around for very long, so it's hardly
worth mentioning).

Any rumors about any other products sharing the same name are just the
fevered rantings of the psychologically unwell. ;-)
