You know that Mormon was the name of a prophet historian and the name was used in the book Book of Mormon so when did the religion start to prefer the term LDS?
Yes it is true that Mormon is the name of a prophet and historian in the Book of Mormon, but members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have always preferred to be called "Latter Day Saints" since the beginning.Much of this comes from this verse:"And how be it my church save it be called in my name? For if a church be called in Moses' name then it be Moses' church; or if it be called in the name of a man then it be the church of a man; but if it be called on my name then it is my church, if it so be that they are built upon the Gospel." -Book of Mormon, 3 Nephi 27:8Calling them "Mormons" gives the false illusion that they worship Mormon, not Jesus Christ, and also that they only use the Book of Mormon, when they also use the Bible.Also, the nickname "Mormon" was given to Church Members by enemies of the Church, so you can understand why they aren't thrilled about using it.Rather than make a big deal about it, they have largely accepted the nickname, although many members find it desrespectful or offensive.
What is the new name that Mormons are called?
Actually, "Mormon" is the new name. The official name of the church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This has been their official name since 1838. Prior to this they were sometimes known as the Church of Christ (1830-1834) or as the Church of Latter Day Saints (1834-1838). The title "Mormon" was a nickname given to them by their enemies, mocking them for their belief in the Book of Mormon. Mormons have since embraced the name and accept "Mormon" as an appropriate, although informal, nickname. However, Mormons still prefer to be called "Latter-day Saints" or "LDS" rather than "Mormon". Generally, it is acceptable to call the followers "Mormons", but it is not appropriate to call the church the "Mormon Church".
