Migraine is the scientific name. "Migraine" refers to the neurological disorder of recurring head pain that occurs with a constellation of other symptoms. The word is taken from the Old French "megrim" which was taken from the Latin "hemicrania," referring to the unilateral head pain.

Status migrainosus refers to a migraine which has lasted longer than 72 hours, the same way status epilepticus refers to prolonged seizure activity.
