I think the recent Popes have selected lame names.

I would be rolling out some old school shite like Innocent XXIII or whatever.

These speculations always tend to be wrong. Francis was not on the public radar....Argentine ,and a Jesuit.

JPII, n one saw coming as prior to his election the Pope tended to be Italian for about 400 years

Even JPI...Cardinal Luciani, no one saw coming

African Methodists are the same way. They pretty much saved a lot of US Methodist churches by not supporting gays.

ETA: They formed the Global Methodist Church. https://globalmethodist.org/

Choosing a medieval name would at least stoke some interest.
