Temple or synagogue are the two most common.
Answer:
Other names would be "tent," or "encampment," or "reside" or "dwell"... a place of "temporary occupation."
In the Lord's annual seven-day "Feast of Tabernacles" in the fall of each year, which pictures the coming thousand year reign of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God on earth, His people are commanded to:
"...dwell in booths seven days..." (Lev.23:42).
Today, this is the equivalent of a "motel room" or a camper... a "tent" or some other "temporary residence" or lodging -- all of which symbolizes our fragile "temporary bodies" in which we dwell for the few years in this life that we are given before the Day of Judgment.
"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the Judgment: so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation." [Heb.9:27-28].
It's a yearly reminder that we die. A reminder to enjoy life. A reminder of God's plan of salvation for man, created in His image... when God will change our "temporary, mortal bodies" into "immortal" ones.
"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep [die], but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye... the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed... and this mortal shall have put on immortality... Death is swallowed up in victory." (I Cor.15:51-54)
It's intended to be an "end-of-the-year" celebration of joy and rejoicing by God's people, with one another in the name of the Lord, for the prosperity and abundance with which He has blessed them that year. It pictures the joy and prosperity that Christ's coming rule over the nations of the earth shall bring: health and healing, abundant crops, global happiness and peace. The things missing in this world that all the nations have always wished they had.
The "Tabernacle" in the wilderness that the Israelites were commanded to construct, was a "break-down" model of the one Solomon had built; a series of "tents" sanctified by God for different functions of service to Him. They set it up "temporarily" wherever they went... and took it with them when they moved on.
A "tabernacle" is a passing, fleeting, "temporal dwelling place."
The Tabernacle was also known as the Tent of Meeting.

The key differences between the earthly tabernacle and the heavenly tabernacle are that the earthly tabernacle was a physical structure built by humans for worship and sacrifices, while the heavenly tabernacle is a spiritual dwelling place of God. The earthly tabernacle was temporary and required constant maintenance, while the heavenly tabernacle is eternal and does not need upkeep. Additionally, the earthly tabernacle was a symbol or foreshadowing of the heavenly tabernacle, which is the true and perfect dwelling place of God.
