    I’m not sure what you mean by listing the column names. As already mentioned to list the data within all columns you’ll need to write:

    select * from table
    

    Whereas if you’d like a list of just the columns in your table, give these a try:

    show columns from table
    

    or

    describe table
    

    More information on the latter can be found here
