Name That Pope!


It would seem that the next Pope's name is a hot topic among Catholics and non-Catholics alike. There are betting pools and endless conjecture amongst the Pope-watchers. Apparently, there is a set of guidelines that the new Pope must follow...

The successor to Pope John Paul II can choose a Latinized form of his Christian name or the name of an earlier pope, or a saint's name.

It is well known that Pope John Paul II chose the name of his predecessor to help ensure a sense of continuity. This led me to the perfect name for the next Pope.
To give a greater sense of continuity, the new Pope should forgo the guidelines and take the name...

Pope George Ringo I
