A Cullenite is a follower of any person named Cullen. Notable Cullens to have followers referred to as Cullenites have included the Scottish physician William Cullen[1] and particularly Paul Cardinal Cullen, archbishop of Dublin and the first cardinal from Ireland.

Notable Cullenites who followed Cardinal Cullen included George Joseph Plunket Browne, Bishop of Elphin,[2] and Patrick Francis Moran, archbishop of Sidney and the first cardinal from Australia; indeed, "Cullenite" is used as an adjective in the phrases "Cullenite network" (used to describe a group of bishops who had been students of or were related to Cardinal Cullen, and many of whom became highly influential in the churches of Australia and New Zealand)[3] and "the Cullenite church", used to describe the Irish church until the 1960, a church strongly allied to the "rural bourgeoisie" and the rising class of what are called "strong-farmers".[4]
