Unfortunately, you have to pick from a list of X amount of names. Hence the John Paul II part, or Benedict XVI.

I'm pretty sure many of those names won't be on the list.

Surley as pope you could change any rule in this regard. As one becomes pope before taking the name one could amend any rule.

Who are you, the Queen? *One* could probably change the rule, but I don't think Pope Onarope would go down too well.

John II started the tradition - his birth name was Mercurius, which also being the name of the Roman god of trade and commerce (and presumably email given that Mercurius/Mercury is the Roman equivalent of Hermes) might have been inappropriate for a pope. A few have ruled under their birth names since though (one of the Marcelluses did IIRC).


I'm unaware of any rule that says you have to pick a name that someone's used before (and tbh it doesn't make sense to me as a rule rather than as a common tradition that could be broken at a whim) so some link to a reference to that might be interesting.

Oh, tempted as I am to go for Pope Selwyn Froggit (or Pope Hilarious II - there's been a Hilarius before), I'd go for Pope Peter The Roman as it might bother a few people.
