The official name is: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

There are several small splinter groups that share some common beliefs with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but they are not affiliated with the Church in any way. People who are not familiar with the LDS Church can be confused by the use of the term "Mormon" because there are some denominations that use the name "Mormon" because of their common belief in the Book of Mormon, but they are not members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These sects include: The Community of Christ (formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (most commonly known for practicing polygamy), The Church of Christ (Temple Lot), The Church of Jesus Christ, The Rigdonites

∙ 14y agoThis a wierd question. So it calls for a wierd answer. They are called Mormons. Pretty unpredictable I know. They are also referred to as Latter Day Saints (LDS), which stems from the name of the church, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints".

∙ 12y agoActually, "Mormon" is the other name. The official name of the Church is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Church members prefer to be called "Latter-day Saints" or "LDS". "Mormon" is a nickname given to them by those who oppose the Church.

Nobody. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) was founded in the US - so the first Mormons were already in the US! :) If you are speaking of the first Mormons to move from another country to the US, rather than the first Mormons ever in the US, the answer is still nobody. The first Mormons to move from another country to the US came from Canada, and were not 'brought' by any specific person, only encouraged to move so that they could be nearer to the main body of the church.
