How about north and south? That extends to east and west easily for multi-wheel mice. `wheel-up' and `wheel-down' are better because they are similar to the names of the vertical arrow keys, which are `up' and `down'. I don't think people will confuse this with the `down-' prefix for mouse keys. (There is no `up-' prefix.)
