Why are the republicans called the GOP (Grand Old Party) when the democrats were first?

Re: Gop

the only guess i can fathom is that they tend to be the more conservative party. the democrats seem to be more the party us young folk and more interested in liberal change.

If I remember correctly the names switched around in the mid 19th century so the republican party is older than it looks like at first glance. Could be wrong about that though.
