This is for all the Trinity haters out there
What would you do if there was person that joined you church named Trinity? I actually know a few people with that name. Would you ever consider naming a child Trinity or do you hate the Trinity soooo much that you couldn't do it? I am curious to hear what you all think.
For the record my wife and I talked about naming our daughter Trinity but chose not too cause some of our friends in the church gave us garbage over it.

Re: This is for all the Trinity haters out there
Trinidad (Trinity) is a fairly common Spanish name .... First and last.
i.e. boxer Felix Trinidad ...
The Spanish used it to name an island in the Caribbean ....
They also used the the term El Salvador ... The Savior ... for another country.
Of course this is a result of the Roman Catholic influence.
I always got a kick over the popular Korg keyboard that came out .... a few years called the Trinity ...
I'm sure some Apostolics writhed at that sight of it in worship service.

Re: This is for all the Trinity haters out there
There is a United Pentecostal Church in the island of Newfoundland, Canada, in a town called Trinity.
That would make it Trinity United Pentecostal Church.
I do not think they call it that, though.
BTW, the word TRINITY only means three in one. It is not technically limited to three persons in one God.

I have a friend that Pastors a UPC church on Trinity Ln. in Nashville.
But my real question is would anyone on this forum, as an Apostolic oneness person, name their daughter Trinity? I have had more than one oneness person tell us how wrong that would be.

Agreed, but some oneness people are taught to hate the Trinity to such extremes that naming a kid Trinity or something like that in their mind is horrible.
