Leo XIV

The new Pope, Robert Prevost, has decided to adopt the name Leo XVI, a title that has been used by several popes throughout the history of the Catholic Church. This name comes from Latin and is associated with characteristics such as courage, strength, and leadership.


The first pontiff to choose this name was Leo I the Great, who assumed the papacy from September 29, 440, until his death on November 10, 461.
