Gregory I, also known as Gregory the Great, became a saint through his significant contributions to the Christian Church and his exemplary life of service. He was recognized for his theological writings, liturgical reforms, and efforts to evangelize and strengthen the Church's authority in the 6th century. His canonization was largely a result of popular acclaim and his status as a pivotal figure in the history of the papacy. The Catholic Church officially recognized him as a saint, and he is commemorated on September 3rd each year.

Where does the name Gregory originate from?
English form of Latin Gregorius, which was from the late Greek name Γρηγοριος (Gregorios), derived from γρηγορος (gregoros) meaning "watchful, alert". This name was popular among early Christains, being borne by a number of important saints including Saint Gregory Thaumaturgus (3rd century), Saint Gregory of Nyssa (4th century), Saint Gregory of Nazianzus (4th century), and Saint Gregory of Tours (6th century). It was also borne by the 6th-century pope Saint Gregory I the Great, a reformer and Doctor of the Church, as well as 15 subsequent popes.Due to the renown of the saints by this name, Gregory (in various spellings) has remained common in the Christian world through the Middle Ages and to the present day. It was not used in England, however, until after the Norman conquest. A famous bearer from the modern era was American actor Gregory Peck (1916-2003).
