I would say that many if not most Catholics n the English Speaking world (where this term is quite common) are not aware that "Roman Catholic Church" is not the official name.

Yes, many find that these name definition games are confusing.

I think I've received the best answer from you that I'm going to receive. Thanks for taking your time to respond carefully.

Has anyone in the RCC ever said why your church is not call the Roman Christian Church?

Ewtn has given a good explanation of why The Catholic Church calls herself that name. There is much in the description that I am sure are contrary to your beliefs; it is what it is.
