Roman
numerals have long been used to distinguish rulers of countries
and organisations where a person has the same name as a predecessor.
Here
are a couple of rather famous names that become recognisable when
you add the numerals.
Charles
I - English king who lost his head.
Dalai
Lama XIV - Tibetan leader currently living in exile.
Louis
XVI
- The king of France who lost his head.
Henry
VIII
- The king of England who is famous because a couple of his wives
lost their heads.
Pope

us are familiar with.
