          name simply, denotes, more properly, a descriptive
          term, used by way of marking some individual
          peculiarity or characteristic; as, Charles the Bold,

          Bedford, Paul the Apostle, etc. Denomination is to
          particular bodies what appellation is to individuals;
          thus, the church of Christ is divided into different
          denominations, as Congregationalists, Episcopalians,
          Presbyterians, etc.
