Answer:
Every magnet has two sides: a north pole and a south pole. We use these names because if you hang a magnet from a thread, the magnet's north pole points (almost) towards the north direction. This is because the Earth's core (its centre) is a large, weak magnet.

Answer:
Whereas the south pole of the magnet is aligning itself with the magnetic north of Earth. So that is the reason we call them as north pole and south pole is because they align or they show us the direction of the our geographical north and south of Earth.
