Need to name an ancient group of heroes

[Man in the Funny Hat]

The Free Three



Though I think it would be better if this was the name assigned to them generations after they lived, and that at the time they themselves simply could never come up with a good name.

It is required that I add:
the Troika

If you're interested in semi-obscure references in other languages, San Bao are the Three Jewels of Buddhism in Chinese.

Other Buddhist terms of Sanskrit origin: Tripitaka (the Three Baskets) and Trikaya (the Thre Bodies).

I immediately thought of Abraham Lincoln.

Are the heroes all men? Women? or Mixed?

Maybe something like Trinity, Sisterhood, or Brotherhood of Abraham (or Some variant like Avraham or Avrohom).

It could also relate to the formation of Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Judaism, and Islam) to have an ancient tie. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham.

Some pretty good rock band names in this thread.

ZZ Top.

But this one is terrible.

well, they are a threesome!

However, in going with what the OP said he likes, maybe Knights of Freedom, or Templars or similar?

the current group is 3 human males, 1 human female and 1 elf male, with one human male NPC that was a former PC (guy who dropped out due to real life interfering...)

the original group can be anything, as long as I have at least one rep. of each of those good deities I mentioned earlier.
