What is another name for the Devonian period?

I have never known it to be called anything but "The Devonian", but one might speculate it could be called "The First Flowering", as the Devonian was when there was the first massive increase in sea creatures, as well as the first heavy vegetation on the surface of earth. The Devonian ended with a mass extinction event that is still not understood. There is some discussion of the "Alamo Impact Event" being connected with it, but most scientists believe that was too small, and too far before the mass extinction (3.5 million years) to have been the cause.
