OBAMA
Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln were perhaps the two most significant abolitionists. Because of their stature, they were able inspire great amounts of people and write legislation necessary to abolish slavery.
They favored no slavery. They wished to "abolish" slavery. Hence the term abolitionists.
Because abolitionists are fighting for abolitionism which is the movement to end slavery. Reformers such as Dorothea Dix were fighting for the insane who were being mistreated. So in a way abolitionists are reformers but they are fighting to end slavery.
