There are a great many names for the American Civil War depending on where you're from. I'll list a few of them.
The War Between the States (officially adopted name)
The War of Northern Agression
The War of Southern Succession
The Late Unpleasantness (used after the end of the Civil War)
There are a great many others! I recommend studying this time period to get a greater feel for the opinions on both sides, and some of the names they came up with in both the North and the South.
