When he was elected Pope, Jorge Mario Bergoglio decided to assume Francis as his papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. This is how he explained his choice: "I thought of wars and about peace and that’s how the name came to me – a man of peace, a poor man... and how I would like a church of the poor, for the poor".
