Exactly. The trinity is mans teachings.

Mt. 3:16 Jesus was just baptized, the holy spirit descended in the form of a dove & then a voice in heaven said this is my Son, the beloved, whom I approved. They are separate.

The name "Trinity" to describe the doctrine of the triunity of God is man's word (the word is not found in the Bible), but the doctrine the word describes certainly is in the Bible and it describes the one essence of God in three persons.

In Matthew 3:16, you do, indeed, see the different persons of the Trinity in action. They are not separate gods, but separates persons of the Godhead, which is the singular God.
