Solar means our sun and all the 8 planets orbiting around it and other dwarf planets forms a system . that's why it is called so. Also the mass of sun is about 99.86% of the total mass of solar system . So Sun is the head of our family .

What is the opposite of heliocentric?
In a book called On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies (that was published as Copernicus lay on his deathbed), Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the Solar System. Such a model is called a heliocentric system. The ordering of the planets known to Copernicus in this new system is illustrated in the following figure, which we recognize as the modern ordering of those planets.For this reason, a heliocentric system is the Solar System with the sun in the center, so there is not an "opposite".
