The republican party is also called the GOP (Grand Old Party)
Abraham Lincoln was a Republican when he ran for President . In fact, he was the first Republican elected to the Presidency. Before the Republican Party was formed, he was a Whig (1832-1854). In 1864, the national Republican Party changed its name to National Union Party in order to attract pro war Democrats and border state unionists who would not vote for a Republican.

Thomas Jefferson, for example, is often cited as being the first Republican president, but he was, in fact, a Republican Democrat.
Richard Nixon was a member of the Republican Party.
The Democratic-Republican Party was better known as the Republican Party. The later Republican Party was named to pay homage to this party.
