when is the Trimurti referred to first?
The concept of Brahma as Creator, Vishnu as preserver and Siva as destroyer seems to be a Puranic concept. By definition Trimurti cannot appear in Rig Veda since Siva as a God's name does not appear in Rig Veda.

which is the most frequent formulation of the Gods of the Trimurti?
Brahma-Vishnu-Siva
Brahma-Vishnu-Mahesh
are the ones I have seen the most.
Any others?
Is this order the most frequent because Birth-Preservation-Annihilation is the natural order?
note: this is NOT a venue for "my God is superior to your God" type…
