The term "cheerleader" is thought to have originated in the late 19th century, describing those who led cheers at sporting events. Cheerleading evolved into a more organized activity with the development of organized school spirit and sports in the early 20th century.

Was Abraham Lincoln a cheerleader?

No- I have never heard Lincoln called a cheerleader and I doubt that he would answer to that name. I see a cheerleader as someone who stays on the sidelines and roots for a favorable outcome rather than getting into the game and doing things. That was not Lincoln. On the contrary, my dear, George Washington was a fine cheerleader.
