The negative electrode is typically called the "cathode." In an electrochemical cell or battery, the cathode is the electrode where reduction (gain of electrons) takes place during the electrochemical reaction. It is the site where positively charged ions or molecules accept electrons, thus getting reduced and leading to the overall electrochemical process.
