Yes, the second currency in a currency pair is called the quote currency (or counter currency).
In a currency pair like EUR/USD, the first currency (EUR) is the base currency, and the second currency (USD) is the quote currency. The quote currency shows how much of that currency is needed to buy one unit of the base currency.
