| Sep 3, 2016 at 11:22 | comment | added | Andrew Leach♦ | @EdwinAshworth That definition is really unhelpful in ascertaining what the OP is actually asking for. The term Trinity was originally coined in Latin in 415 on the Algerian coast. | |

| Sep 3, 2016 at 9:32 | comment | added | Andrew Leach♦ | Are you asking about the etymology (Trinity is fairly obviously related to three; holy comes from German heilig) or the history (When the Holy Trinity was first called that; who coined the phrase)? | |
| Sep 3, 2016 at 8:23 | comment | added | Makoto | @WS2: Both of those have got some pretty strong leads. Thanks for that. If there are some more concrete pieces of evidence in there, I may wind up answering this one. | |
| Sep 3, 2016 at 8:18 | comment | added | WS2 | This is really a question, either for the Christianity site, or for the History site. But I would suggest you look at the Nicene Creed (325CE) and all that followed from it as containing the principal clue to your question. This sitemay help. | |
