I don't know what an appropriate prize might be for the winner, except bragging rights (except that it's not polite to brag...).

Happy guessing.

I have no idea (and I did get a chuckle out of "George Ringo" :lol:) but I was wondering what criteria they use when picking their names.

Most of the names on that list aren't apostles or anyone I'm familiar from other parts of history, so I wonder where they got them. John and Paul (and permutations of those) are pretty straighforward but ones like Marcellus, Innocent, etc. make me wonder where they got them from.

LQ, not Catholic

I don't have any guesses as to what name the next pope will take, but I'm pretty sure Pius XXIII is already taken. (Remember John Kerry quoting "Pius XXIII)

I'm not too concerned about the name JPII's successor takes. I just pray that he is holy. (Being a strong disciplinarian would be nice, too.)

The reason there wasn't a John for so long is because of the "anti-pope" "John XXIII" who poisoned the name for so long. We have a priest in Montana who calls himself Piux XIII, but he probably doesn't have enough recognition to scar the name.

If an African: Gelasius III.

St. Gelasius I (492-496) was the last African-born Pope.

I emailed the Vatican with the suggestion of Pope Snagglepuss, and they wrote back saying that is right out.
