Is it really true that Archbishop Bugnini's baptismal name was Hannibal? Is it really permitted to baptise with a name that perpetuates the memory of the old Semitic fertility god Ba'al? Wouldn't such a name imply that its holder was destined to be a promoter of idolatry? Or that he was philoprogenitive?
Is the name Annibale common among Italian Freemasons?

I wonder if like the Carthaginian, his father made him swear an oath to never be a friend of Rome, or at least its Rite.
I think you need to look at St. Annibale Maria di Francia, founder of a chain of orphanages and several religious orders. June 1 is his day.
Annibale, an Italian given name equivalent to Hannibal, may refer to:

And let us not forget our favourite shop in the Via Santa Chiara - Annibale Gammarelli.
I have taken to calling liturgical destruction Hannibalization.
