Names of the American Civil War

The American Civil War has been known by a number of names since it began in 1861. These names reflect the historical, political, and cultural sensitivities of different groups and regions.〔Political scientists use two criteria to define a civil war:
# The warring groups must be from the same country and fighting for control of the political center, control over a separatist state, or to force a major change in policy.
# At least 1,000 people must have been killed in total, with at least 100 from each side.
See Wong, Edward (November 26, 2006). ("A Matter of Definition: What Makes a Civil War, and Who Declares It So?" ) ''The New York Times''.〕
The most common name in modern American usage is simply the "Civil War". Although used rarely during the war, the term "War Between the States" became widespread afterward in the Southern United States. During and immediately after the war, Union forces often used the term "War of the Rebellion" or the "Great Rebellion", while the Confederate equivalent was "War for Southern Independence". The latter regained some currency in the late 20th century, but has again fallen out of use. Other terms often reflect a more partisan view of events, such as the "War of Northern Aggression", used by some Southerners, or the "Freedom War", used by their black counterparts to celebrate the effect the war had on ending slavery. In several European languages, the war is called "War of Secession".
A variety of names also exist for the forces on each side; the opposing forces named battles differently as well. The Union forces frequently named battles for bodies of water that were prominent on or near the battlefield; Confederates most often used the name of the nearest town. As a result, many battles have two or more names that have had varying use, although with some notable exceptions, one has tended to take precedence over time.
