Start counting from your lower neck down (only a couple inches). I've come across many varied names for them. Either the group name of vertebrae in that area or the name of each individual vertebra is fine. I'm looking for a slightly technical term, not "your neck vertebrae, duh". Thanks a lot!

  1. Cervical Group C1-C7


  2. C-1 - Atlas

    C-2 - Axis

    C-3

    C-4

    There is not a group name for the first four vertebrae.  The first group consists of the first "seven" vertebrae and is called cervical vertebrae.
