Those are the names generally used here in the UK. Apart from those in trad jazz bands, everybody seems to now use GDAE which works well for playing fiddle tunes. If you also play fiddle or mandolin, there is less mental transposing involved in switching between instruments, if they are all in the G tuning, albeit an octave apart. Yes, the lowest G string doesn’t get used that much, but I use ADAE tuning most of the time, which gives you a useful low drone note for tunes in D, A, Am, Dm, plus some easier and more interesting chord voicings.
