Best Answer

The answer depends on the definition of "denomination".

Christians formed different kind of sects fairly early (Gnosticism).

"The church" was divided (Roman Cath. & Eastern Orthodox) in 1054. At the time, the churches didn't see each other's as "denominations"; the opposing side was simply "heretical".

In reformation, many protestant denominations were created. That's when the Catholic church had to start seeing itself as a denomination, as well, to define its teachings and policy.

Lutheranism became a separate movement in about 1530. The Church of England separated from the Catholic church in 1534.
