I know very well what the real Pantheon is, it's a roman building. The Parthenon, as mentioned, is a Greek temple to Athena, the Pantheon is the Universal temple to all the Roman gods.

We can safely assume Pantheon, the champion, is not a building. Now, is he a Roman legionnaire (or centurion, w/e) or Greek Hoplite? First of all, his skins have nothing to do with him. Poppy has a Noxus skin yet she fights for Valoran/Bandle City, Miss Fortune has a Secret Agent Skin yet she's a pirate hunter. His helmet is one that both Roman and Greek soldiers used. Same goes with the spear. Now, his round shield is one that was used by the Greeks (Romans generally used square shields). This would prove him to be a Hoplite. However, it is a KNOWN FACT that hoplites didn't wear capes. In fact, it is the Roman military which started this, because their army was much more organized and was a "real" army, while in the Greek society everyone fought, and nobody was "paid" for it. Also, Romans were further from the equator, and often had to fight in colder climate conditions, what forced them to use capes.

His lore would, on the other hand, mark him as a Spartan (known for their superior organization and military force, as well as strict rules etc.). I think this would put them even.

As your ideas with Greek names would work better (I don't know any of the Roman lore, mainly because there was much less of it), I agree with the idea to rename his skills. Just setting the facts right.
