As far as I know, there has never been any special designation for this universe. The Archie Universe? The MLJ Universe? The Blue Ribbon Universe? Certainly not the Impact Universe, which is a separate reality.
Pretty much everything that has been published by MLJ, later Archie has been revealed at one point or another to exist within a shared reality.
Of course, this leads to a complication. The humor characters, from Archie, Sabrina, Josie, ect, don't seem to age, yet they change with the styles of the eras to remain contemporary. Meanwhile, the super-heroes do age and are generational. But they coexist in the same reality, as shown by several meetings.
But in a recent "Free Comic Book Day" special, Sabrina revealed that Archie and gang (and the whole town of Riverdale) are in a space/time anomoly, to explain all this. Clearly the neighboring towns of which Sabrina and Josie live must also be affected. Finally, we can make logical sense of Archie Comics and sleep at night.
