I’m not sure what the difference is between black and brown tabbies, or if it’s the same thing.

I would call her a torbie and the other cat I would call a brown tabby even though the darker color is black. They often have warm red tones too but not a true chocolate brown. I don’t call torties/ tabbies black, if not black they are dilute. Cute kittiesokay I see. So would this cat also technically be considered a black tabby?
Actually, it's the opposite. Brown tabby is the term used by CFA and TICA in their registered colors. I don't know about other associations. The Brown tabbies are genetically black. That means there is no difference, and you can call your cat whatever color you want.Black tabby is the technical term, and is used in most registries, while brown tends to be the layman term. They’re the same thing I prefer black, as they’re genetically black, and true brown (chocolate, cinnamon) is extremely rare outside of pedigrees
