What should we call this?
Most people refer to it as the Unbreakable Franchise or Trilogy. Since all three movies are stand alones and have a common connection I think using a name already used in the titles of the film does it a disservice. My suggestions for the trilogy official name have been the following:

M. Night Shyamalan Universe (MNSU)
Maybe this will be the final installment on the big screen but with Shyamalan making huge steps forward with these films, I think it is time to give him his own production studio on the lot (Tyler Perry style) so he can expand and have new writer, directors and characters take this universe in a various of new directions.
I would love to see this story continue on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon. Even a cable channel such as Starz or Fx would work. The material is rich with possibilities.
After screening the Glass film it is definitely an origin if you really think about it.
Without giving anything away, the ground work for a TV series and/or more films with a bigger budget would definitely work. Once the results come in from the box office and this hit of a film takes the number one spot (my prediction) this should solidify the notion. I'm hoping that this film is a huge success. Comparing it to original superhero films not based on comic books this is by far the most superior. Lets see how I feel after Incredibles 3.
Go see this film. If you haven't seen Unbreakable or Split you'll be a little confused by not by much. I highly recommend bingeing them first or after seeing Glass. If you watch them out of order it may be a better experience (Star Wars style).

M. Night Shyamalan brings together the narratives of two of his standout originals—2000’s Unbreakable, from Touchstone, and 2016’s Split, from Universal—in one explosive, all-new comic-book thriller: Glass. From Unbreakable, Bruce Willis returns as David Dunn as does Samuel L. Jackson as Elijah Price, known also by his pseudonym Mr. Glass. Joining from Split are James McAvoy, reprising his role as Kevin Wendell Crumb and the multiple identities who reside within, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Casey Cooke, the only captive to survive an encounter with The Beast. Following the conclusion of Split, Glass finds Dunn pursuing Crumb’s superhuman figure of The Beast in a series of escalating encounters, while the shadowy presence of Price emerges as an orchestrator who holds secrets critical to both men.Release date: January 18, 2019 (USA)Director: M.
