The name Benedict deals with the olive.

The name Benedict has nothing to do with olives. Well, you do put one on an eggs benedict, so...

It goes back to the Benedictine Order founded by St. Benedict. I don't have the exact details, but I did read about this for quite a while.

Who will be the next Pope? According to the prophecy of Saint Malachy, the 111th pope in his list is signified by "Gloria de Olivae" or 'the Glory of the Olives'. In this regard, it appears that the next pope might be Italian Cardinal Dionigi Tettamanzi. Why? Consider the following insight from a blog FOUND HERE:

"#9. The Glory of the Olive. The Order of St. Benedict has said this Pope will come from their order. It is interesting that Jesus gave his apocalyptic prophecy about the end of time from the Mount of Olives. This Pope will reign during the beginning of the tribulation Jesus spoke of. The 111th prophesy is "Gloria Olivae" (The Glory of the Olive). The Order of Saint Benedict has claimed that this pope will come from their ranks. Saint Benedict himself prophesied that before the end of the world his Order, known also as the Olivetans, will triumphantly lead the Catholic Church in its fight against evil"
