The original Globe Theatre had seven owners, known as the "Globe's original shareholders." Their names were Richard Burbage, Cuthbert Burbage, William Shakespeare, Augustine Phillips, Thomas Pope, John Heminge, and Edward Alleyn. These individuals were instrumental in its construction and operation, with Shakespeare being the most famous among them for his contributions to the theatre as a playwright and actor.

Catholics
In August 2013 the pope is Pope Francis and his predecessor was Pope Benedict XVI who retired in February of 2013.
No, there has never been a pope named David in the history of the Roman Catholic Church. The list of popes includes many names, but David is not among them. Popes typically choose names that reflect their personal inspirations or saints, and the name David has not been selected by any pope.
Joseph Alois Ratzinger was his original name.
Odo of Lagery was the original name of Pope Urban II.
Eva Pope does not have any other names. Eva Rebecca Pope is her full name and she is an English actress.
Religious councils get their names from the Pope.
Pope Paul VI was the only pope in 1970.
Mostly, the new pope should choose his name from the old name pope. The Cardinal and Bishop would not agree if that would be the case.
Since Pope Francis is the first and only pope by that name, there is no need for a number after his name. If a pope in the future also decides to take the name Francis, he will become Pope Francis II and then the original Pope Francis will become Pope Francis I.
