Who is the 110th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church?

Pope St. Adrian III, who served as bishop of Rome from 884 to 885 was the 110th pope.That is, if you count Stephen II, who would be #92. He was elected in 752, but died four days later, before being ordained a bishop.Since the pope is by definition the bishop of Rome, and you cannot be a bishop of Rome if you are not yet a bishop, some lists do not count him. But since he was the 92nd person electedbishop of Rome, others do include him.If you do not count Stephen II, then the 110th bishop of Rome is Stephen VI, who served from 885-891.
