The rare or inert gases are more commonly known as the noble gases.
Inert gas = Noble gas Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon
Noble Gases
Another name for noble gases is inert gases.
An inert gas is one that won't react with other gases. You can store inert gases with any other gases - oxygen (an oxidizing gas) and argon (an inert gas) are commonly stored together in industrial settings.
Because they are chemically inert (or noble) due to the presence of completely filled orbitals.

No. Neon (symbol Ne, atomic number 10) is an inert gas. Inert gases are also known as rare gases or noble gases and are generally unreactive due to a full outer electron shell.
Elements of Group 18 may be called as;1-Noble gases 2-Rare gases 3- Inert gases
Noble gases are also known as, 1- inert gases 2- rare gases 3- monoatomic gases 4- zero group elements.
inert means they are not reactive gases. (:
Some element that is unreactive, like any of the rare gases helium, neon, argon etc.
