Our sources at the (other) Holy Office transmitted us the otherwise classified information that the new Pope chose his name in sign of appreciation and reverence for a historical character which inspired him in his youth. Some are talking about a certain Saint Francis of Assisi, but this is obviously a ploy intended to distract from finding the true source. It stands to reason that a Jesuit like the ex-Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio wouldn't even begin to think about using the name of the founder of a competing religious order! And if that isn't enough, we are proud to present a copy of the top secret first sketch of the poster announcing the election of the new Pope, drafted on the very table where the pope elect sat during the conclave. It gives certain subtle hints as to his secret muse, but we'll leave to you, dear reader, the pleasure to discover them:

yes, they have a new pope with a holly name. You talk about a "founder of a competing religious order", but your knowledge is sketchy. It isn`t Francisc de Assisi, but FRANCISC XAVIER. Look at here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Xavier

OK, let's sort two things out:
1. This post was intended as satire. A detail which, I suspect, should be pretty obvious to anyone who has the "bad" habit of reading. (That is, reading more than just the menu at the fast-food, comics for pre-teens, and tabloid headlines.)
2. I suggest next time you at least get your shit straight before making the effort to create a brand new account just to bitch about some minor detail on an obscure blog. Congrats for achieving a degree of google-fu perfection that allowed you to find out that there was a Francis among the founders of the Jesuit order! Perhaps you should've taken advantage of your proficiency to find out that the new pope himself said he chose the name of Francis in honor of said Saint Francis of Assisi.
PS: Sorry, no additional creds for posting twice the same inanity!
