There is no standard for agile terminology and it is highly unlikely there will ever be a standard. Disciplined Agile (DA) strives to be agnostic in its terminology. Feel free to choose whatever terms you like when you’re on your teams but recognize that doing so may hamper your ability to think outside the methodology box.
