A diameter is a segment that passes through the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle.
The line passing through the center of a circle with two endpoints on the circle is the circle's diameter.
If you are referring to the segment passing through the center of the circle and touching the circumference of the circle then it's the diameter of the circle.There can be infinite diameters drawn inside a circle.

A line through a circle that does not go through the center of the circle is a secant line. A line through a circle that does go through the center is still a secant line, by the way. Compare this to a line segment that has its two endpoints on the circumference of the circle. That line segment is a cord of the circle. If that cord of the circle passes through the center of the circle, then the cord is a diameter of that circle.
That's a "diameter" of the circle.
A diameter of a circle must pass through the center of that circle. A cord is a line segment that has its endpoints on the circumference of a circle. It can be any line segment. If that cord also passes through the center of the circle, it is said to be a diameter of that circle. A diameter of a circle is the longest cord of the circle.
