I guess that depends on how far back one goes.
Good guy and somewhat controversial.

My favorite is St. Augustine of Hippo. He stands out not only for his theological and philosophical brilliance but also for his personal journey from sin to sanctity. His life and works offer timeless insights into the nature of God, humanity, and the path to salvation

Easy, IMHO: St. John Chrysostom. He is the big cheese in Orthodoxy.
St. Gregory the Theologian (Nanziansus) is a close second, along with Gregory of Nyssa - the Cappodocian Fathers (along with Basil).
