Imagine an XL table:
_ A B
X 1 2
Y 3 4
If "A" and "B" are called "headers" what do you call "X" and "Y"?
EDIT: thanks everyone, i ll go with "row headers" as opposed to "column headers"

A and B are column headers; X and Y are row headers.

"Row headers" seems wrong to me. Maybe "row labels"?
-
I may be wrong but I believe A and B are column headers while X and Y are row headers
-
Depends on the context. I work with databases, so A and B are column headers and X and Y are either row numbers, or identifiers.
-
I'd call A and B "column headers" and X and Y "row headers"

Hey OP, I know you already found your answer, but I was wondering what you call these in French? (Or whatever your native language is)
-
It can also be called index
