They didn't call themselves Aztecs, they called themselves Mexica.

The Aztec word was created later for archeological terms to distinguish the ancient from the modern day Mexicans.

^ is all wrong.

They called themselves Chichimeca. The other tribes thought that this name was funny, but when they did something good, the Toltecs helped them out and started by changing their name to Aztec.
