Both terms cover a lot.

It might be good if there where extra terms to cover some specific ideas, so you would have one term for the philosophical field, one for formal rules of a profession, one for religious and/or absolute moral principles, and one for non-religious and/or less absolute moral principles.

But that would only be useful if the words where well established. Creating neologisms for them now would probably just create more confusion.
