Other than this is AI-generated, we didn't move to Anfield in 1878 (or were even known as Everton at that time).

Other than this is AI-generated, we didn't move to Anfield in 1878 (or were even known as Everton at that time).

When were we known as Everton then ? Saint Domingos named after the Methodist church where we evolved - ?

They tried to pinch our name when we moved - in bold

Originally named "Everton F.C. and Athletic Grounds Ltd" (Everton Athletic for short), the club became Liverpool F.C. in March 1892 and gained official recognition three months later, after The Football Association refused to recognise the club as Everton.

So we were known as Everton FC at Anfield to begin with ?

We took leave to Goodison Park on a big piece of land from a redundant Markert garden plot known as Mere Gardens & were allowed to rightly keep our name - John Holding named his break away side not Anfield FC as that's the area name , but Liverpool FC
The rest is history -
