Debatable. Certainly political but not an obvious yes to primarily.
I won't count as question but as it's a clue I'll be less inclined to hint.

Is he typically known by something more than just his given name, such as a nickname or some kind of honorific?
Examples could include Vlad the Impaler, Æthelred the Unready, Conan the Barbarian, and Dora the Explorer

Correct, the question can be asked with a yes or no unless the pick happens to be both Italian and French. (I technically asked whether they were a member of the French or Italian peoples.)
