Best Answer

Ecclesia Anglicana, 750 AD, the title of a history written by Baeda, the Saxon Historian and Saint!

This name was also used at the signing of the Magna Carta. 1215.AD.

The name used in the middle ages to identify the Church to colleagues abroad during this period was, Sante Eglise d'Angleterre, the Holy Church of England or the Holy Church in England! Both were in regular use then and today!

When the Roman's broke away in the 16th C,[ 1570.]

the Church in England used the term Anglican to identify themselves whilst the schismatics were given the term Romanist, or papist! This was because the name of the new Roman Church from Trent was the Holy Roman Church!
