Matthew Poole and continuators on Ephesians 3:15

15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named .

Either of God, or rather of Christ last mentioned.

Or Kindred, the Church of God being his Houshold, ch. 2.19.

All the Saints, both which are already in Glory, and which yet live upon the earth, whereever, or whoever they be, Iews or Gentiles.

To be named or called, implies the thing aswell as the name, Isa. 7.14. Luk. 1.35. the whole Family is named of Christ, i. e. of him they are, aswell as are called Christians, and the Church of God. The Iews boasted of Abraham as their Father, but now all Believers, even Gentiles, are one Family of God's People, and upon them the name of Christ is called.
