In the early days of their apostolate, some called the first companions “Ignatians”. However, when they had to choose a name, they didn’t refer to Ignatius but chose to call themselves the ‘Society of Jesus’. Because it was clear to the first companions that it was God who had called them together to serve him, by following and serving his Son Jesus Christ, in the present world.
