1. The name "Cold War" is appropriate as :

The Cold War got its name because both sides were afraid of fighting each other directly. In a "hot war," nuclear weapons might destroy everything. So, instead, both sides fought each other indirectly. They supported opposing sides in conflicts in different parts of the world. They also used words as weapons. They threatened and denounced each other. Or they tried to make each other look foolish.

This was a plan to give money and military aid to countries threatened by communism. Yes it was a good policy. The Truman Doctrine effectively stopped communists from taking control of Greece and Turkey.
