ignatius
patriarchs take the patriarchal name ignatius in honor of the martyr ignatius of antioch, starting with the accession of ignatius behnam of hadl in 1445. ignatius aphrem ii chose a different spelling of the name ignatius by omitting the syriac letter olaph from the spelling of the "a" vowel. this is followed by the patriarch's personal monastic name aphrem, and the regnal number "ii" to distinguish him from ignatius aphrem i barsoum. ignatius aphrem ii does not use his family name, "karim", in his patriarchal title, although he is informally referred to as "ignatius aphrem ii karim".
