If you want to use a singularity, then the "eternal" part makes no sense.... Time is ill-defined at a singularity.... space too, so even my wording "at" is wrong.
As time is ill-defined, you don't know that any wording is right or wrong. Therefore, all we can do is explore the logical possibilities which we can define, which include an eternally existing singularity, or a singularity with a beginning. You can add options if you like, and can define them.

The options are limited by your imagination, at this stage... so... anything goes!
Are you sure you want to discuss something on such a shaky ground?
