Supporters of the North called themselves the Union and they called the South Rebels.

Supporters of the South called themselves the Confederacy and they called the North Yankees.

As a name for the generic individual soldier (something like G. I. Joe of the 20th Century) a soldier of the North is sometimes referred to as Billy Yank and one from the South as Johnny Reb.
