The name "Acts of the Apostles" was first used by Irenaeus in the late 2nd century. It is not known whether this was an existing name for the book or one invented by Irenaeus; it does seem clear that it was not given by the author, as the word práxeis (deeds, acts) only appears once in the text (Acts 19:18) and there it refers not to the apostles but to deeds confessed by their followers.

The Acts of John refers to a collection of stories about John the Apostle that began circulating in written form as early as the 2nd-century AD.

The Acts of John are generally classified as New Testament apocrypha.
