All of Marvel's alternate realities are given a designate of Earth-###.
Age of Apocalypse is Earth-295,
Days of Future Past is Earth-811,
Here Comes Tomorrow is Earth-15104
and House of M is designated Earth-58163.
All are alternate realities.

Ok, it's time to furhter dispel this "Earth-616" theory concerning HOM, or any other Reality,
with PROOF ... Mr M doesn't do it any other way. swank
In Marvel,
other Realities or the Prime Reality itself (616)
are often referred to as (Earth-###) or (Reality-###)
These terms are interchangeable and I will prove that.
The bottom line is that they are ALL Realities/Universes.
2007 Bios:
Here we have Apocalypse Beast's bio:
(Talking bout AB's Universe)
"In at least one Future Reality (Earth-6034), by the year 12425 AD ... "
Here we have Captain America's bio:
(Talking about Cable's Universe)
"survive Thousands of years into Cable's Home Era of (Earth-4935)"
Here in Iron Maniac's bio:
(Talking about an Iron Man from an Alternate Universe)
"Mr Fantastic foiled Stark's plans by transporting him to Another Reality: Earth-616"
"Arriving on ... Earth-616's Latveria, Stark
(who did not realize he had been sent to Another Reality"😉
"to power a machine that could return Stark to Earth-5012 (another Universe/Reality)
....................................................................................
Still summarizing a Multiple Universal scale story with the terms ... "Earth-###."
....................................................................................
"Mr Fantastic could find a way
to send him back to Earth-5012 without damaging Earth-616"
Here in Shaper of Worlds bio:
(Talking about the shape of CCUs in the 616 Universe)
"always confine themselves in geometric solids;
in the Dimension of Earth-616 these were Cubes"
Here in Perun's bio: (This is the BIG ONE)
(Talking about Perun's Universe, which is located OUTSIDE the Multiverse)
This is a Universe in another Multiverse
"controlled by the Stranger into battling Quasar
and the heroes from Earth-148611 (the NEW Universe) before"
Here in Pip's bio: (This is another BIG ONE)
(Talking about Rune, from the Ultraverse) (which is OUTSIDE the Multiverse)
This is a Universe in another Multiverse
"the Watch were robbed of their respective Gems,
by the Earth-93060 (Ultraverse) vampire Rune"
There you have it,
no more banking on the only argument you had,
the whole "Earth-616" sign23 has been handled.
Heck UniverseS OUTSIDE the Multiverse are termed (Earth-###).
