Is Geneva Voyageurs train station the same as Geneva Cornavin?

My train tickets from Geneva say they're from Geneve Voyageurs, but I can't find where that is. I'm assuming it's the same as Cornavin, but I'd hate to get there and find out I'm in the wrong place. Help!!

That is the same as Geneva Cornavin; Geneva Voyageurs is the old unofficial name of the train station still in use.
The other station is at Geneva Airport.

Geneve Cornavin is not official either. The official name of the main Geneva station is just "Genève". SNCF just hasn't gotten the memo yet (or has chosen to ignore it...)

Similar kind of question. I'm trying to book a ticket from CDG (station) to Geneva - specifically Cornavin. When I check via Rail Europe, the only option is "Geneva (all stations)". On their website, there's lots of info about Cornavin as the main rail station. Any tips? Hints? How to confirm?

If you look on the website of SNCF (the train operator) you will see that the TGV serves Geneve [Geneva] Cornavin- https://www.sncf-connect.com/app/home/search/od

Whether or not buying a ticket through a 3rd party, my suggested way of route planning is to use the National Railway Operator's website or the website of Deutsche Bahn- the German national operator- but their planning website is pan European.

That will always give details like that.
