I am looking for the word for the row at the top of this Excel file that shows what category each cell in the column is in.

enter image description here

I've been using "header", but I wanted to check if there was a better word for it.

Example:

Does your Excel file have a __ ?

    This is not an English question. It's an Excel question.

    Try sorting your spreadsheet and see what Excel asks you.

It's a header row.

Header rows are rows that contain information that help identify the content of a particular column. If the table spans several pages of a print layout, the header row will usually repeat itself at the beginning of each new page.
