Well, St. Jason appears to be the closest fit, but too many soap-opera characters are named Jason, so that just won't do. You'd better stick with St. Monica; her prayers and intercession certainly helped land a big fish. Augustine was a mere dissolute, mind you, but that's not far removed from Protestant (KIDDING!).

Given the circumstances, it's a close shave, but I'd vote for St. Thomas Moore.

My anglophile confirmation saint was Edward the Confessor. I'd certainly take a look at the English saints. The Venerable Bede, Becket, More, etc. Newman won't be canonized in time, though it is coming. St. George, although he was a Roman, also fought with the English during the Crusades if you believe the lore.

I'd look at some others -- Sts. Jerome, Ambrose, St. Martin, Benedict, Augustine, Francis of Assisi, St. Dominic, Bernard of Clairvaux, Aquinas, Bonaventure, Ignatius Loyola, John of the Cross, Borromeo, Vincent de Paul, Alphonse Liguori, Padre Pio -- there's plenty to choose from.

There's also the apostles and the saints of the early church -- John the Baptist, John the Evangelist, St. Peter, St. Paul, St. James (a personal favorite), any of the Twelve, St. Luke, St. Stephen -- all of them are worth taking a look at. Church fathers are good, too -- Justin Martyr, Irenaeus of Lyons, etc.

Also some of the Eastern saints are worth considering -- John Chrysostom, John Damascene, Ignatius of Antioch, Gregory Nazanzian, St. Cyril, St. Methodius, etc.

Also the archangels -- St. Michael, Raphael, Gabriel.

I'd go through the Catholic encyclopedia and find one you're comfortable with.

I pray to about a dozen in my personal litany. Some I have no great personal connection to, but just a sense that they are listening and are willing to pray for me. St. Martin de Porres and St. Elizabeth of Hungary have become favorite intercessors of mine.

When in doubt, a martyr, a Franciscan, or a Dominican always work.

Robbo,

My nominee is St. Martin of the Fields. There is a church named for him in downtown London, with a brief blurb on his conversion.

I chose St Augustine for my patron at confirmation.

We need more people like him,  I agree with you.
