@MassimoOrtolano Although we could answer it, it's of little interest because the issue goes to English language usage more than to statistics. The null hypothesis is traditionally the hypothesis of no effect, whence the "null". This is explained at stats.stackexchange.com/a/179574/919 and this site search is likely to turn up something to satisfy the OP.

@Whuber Thanks, I won’t migrate it, but point that answer to the OP.
