There is this church on the Isle of Man so must be a real saint
The village past Marown Church is known as CROSBY, a scandanavian word meaning the village with a cross. On the top of the hill is the Halfway House (halfway between Douglas and Peel) and on the descent of this hill, to the right, stands St. Trinians Church, a church that has been roofless for centuries. It was a small abbey built about 1230 on a piece of ground granted by King Olaf, as an oratory where prayers were offered for him and his family. Close by was a hostel for the use of travellers across the island. The Manx legend of the "Buggane of St.Trinians" ascribes the rooflessness to a huge "buggane" or giant who lived in Greeba mountain and who blew off the roof every time it was completed. The only thing that could prevent such a happening was for a tailor to sit in the chancel and make a pair of breeches. The local tailor volunteered to do this and indeed had almost completed his task, which was only short of one button when the thread gave out, and he hurried home to get a last hank. On his way back, the buggane returned and off went the roof once more, and the tailor was never seen again.

The cartoons of the girls at an imaginary school called St. Trinian's were created by Ronald William Fordham Searle British graphic satirist.
There was also a 1950-1980s British comedy series of films on St. Trinian's--a school for girls with a terrible reputation.
The Belles of St Trinian's
Blue Murder at St Trinian's
The Pure Hell of St Trinian's
The Great St Trinian's Train Robbery
The Wild Cat's of St Trinian's
I cannot find Trinian in any Saints database... but that does not ensure such a "saint" never existed... St Christopher was demoted by the RC church as legendary and probably fictious (and just a metaphor/folk tradition); Trinian could have been something similar.

RE:
Was there an actual Saint Trinian after which the fictional school St. Trinians was named?

The school which inspired Ronald Searle's anarchic creations was actually called St Trinnean's.

Unfortunately St. Trinnean him or herself remains elusive at this time!
Good question -- have a star!
