Oh, my bad. I see what you meant but the Paulicans were named as such because they followed a preacher (I don't remember if he was clergy at the time like Luther was) of that time names Paul. Paulicans were not named after the Apostle Paul.

Don't worry about it, posts do not transmit tone and intent well, I could have been clearer if I'd written more.
That's almost worse! I would suggest that the meaning would remain as Paul also referred to Apollos. I suspect Paul would still disapprove, even if they didn't chose to name themselves after him specifically.
