Orethapedia

White smoke poured forth from the Sistine Chapel.

Inside the Vatican’s cloistered halls, the new pope will be preparing to adopt his papal name, which can indicate what type of pontiff he intends to be.

Then he will don a white papal cassock and the ceremonial fisherman’s ring before being led through the Hall of Benedictions and out onto the balcony, known as the Loggia of the Blessings.

His name is Robert Francis Prevost, now Pope Leo XIV.
