The original alliance of England, France, and Russia, which existed before WW I and before the US joined the alliance, was called the Triple Entente, which is derived from the French word meaning understanding. These three nations, in other words, had an understanding among each other that they would mutually resist any aggression from the central powers. I have not heard of any other name that applied to the central powers prior to WW I.
