jus an added input, trinity dies, and comes back to life (via neo) so maybe its trinity that is more christ-like than neo. jus a thought.

dictionary.com;

"1.A group consisting of three closely related members.
2.Trinity Theology. In most Christian faiths, the union of three divine persons, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, in one God. Also called Trine."


the group of three closely related members is Morpheus,Neo and Trinity.

Can anyone else help out with the question of what we are supposed to take from the fact that Trinity is named Trinity?

As everyone here knows (much better than I do), most (all?) names in these movies were chosen very carefully, and they generally have very specific meanings. I find it unlikely that the name of such a central character was not chosen just as carefully.

So, the obvious reference is the "father, son, and holy spirit" "Trinity" , but WHY?

Mook, your suggestion ("the group of three closely related members is Morpheus,Neo and Trinity" is very interesting, but it seems strange that this would be all "The Bros" meant by Trinity's name, given all the OTHER names.

Perhaps we are barking up the wrong tree. Does the word "Trinity" show up in any other contexts?

I've never posted here yet, but I've been trying to find meaning behind the reason Trinity's name for some time so I'll just put my own two cents in. I have two suggestions for this:

The first is based on the Holy Trinity idea, but I think it could mean the people closest to Trinity: Morpheus, Neo, and Ghost. Morpheus is the Father because he was the father figure to her, Neo is the Son because of the whole Christ reference, and Ghost is the Holy Spirit, or Holy Ghost as it is also known as, and he has a sibling like relationship to her.

Another was that I read somewhere about the number 13 meaning rebirth and transformation. 13 is mabe up of one and three: Neo and Trinity. When Trinity tells Neo she loves him, it transforms him into the One... and the one and three are united to form the 13.

But this could just be a load of BS, but I don't really know what else to say about the subject.

Trinity Plushie, your number idea seems exactly like the type of thing that would help "The Bros" chose a name. Thanks!

I have to find out more about Ghost. I had no idea he was an important character, although after reading threads on him I see that I really DO need to see The Animatrix. I can't even figure out who he is! Does anyone have a picture?

trinity plushie>nice theory

biologos> there's nothing about ghost in the animatrix, all the info you'd like is in ETM

Blade:Trinity comes out this year

I think that we can see it as, Trinity is the third and final piece of the core group, of Neo, Morpheus and Trinity, but you can also think about it like, she performs, in different occasions, acts similar to all three parts of the Trinity, aka as the Holy Ghost, she meets Neo and sets him on his path (in the club), as Christ, she dies and comes back to life, and as Father, she is love, and she also outranks Neo ("I am the commanding officer on this ship..."

Trinity, closely meaning the number 3, is also the name of Korg Trinity synthesisers . As we know, also, number 3's appear on several pillars when Morpheus, Neo and trinity reach the subway in the' maTRIx'. Furthermore, she first appears in the maTRIx in room 303.
However, there are many other wierd and wonderful coincidences that arise with her character and perhaps brings light to the significance of 'Trinity'. Most notably, Carrie-Anne explains the significance as a representation of the 'combination' of her, Keanu and Laurence. Christian Theology suggest the 'unity' of the Father (Morpheus?), the Son (Neo?) and the Holy Spirit (Trinity).
