I tend to use headline when I want to suggest it can fold, and
heading when I want to refer to the contents of the headline.

This is all a bit intuitive, but I don't think this is a problem.

I've had the same confusion before, and have ended up trying to stick to
heading. Having worked in journalism, headline has very definite
associations for me. Heading is seen in other equivalent contexts,
like Latex, but so is header. Header stomps on the toes of
email/HTML/HTTP, though, so I come back to heading...

Two cents,
Eric

Function names in org.el tend to use heading.

#+begin_src sh
  grep defun org.el | grep heading | wc -l
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: 28

#+begin_src sh
  grep defun org.el | grep headline | wc -l
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: 3

I think Org uses them interchangeably. One of the three functions above
that use headline is `org-find-exact-headline-in-buffer', and the
function immediately below it is `org-find-exact-heading-in-directory'.
