I've seen it frequently called a 2,3 (read "two, three") 5th valve. Sometimes also called a "long 3rd valve" or a "flat 3rd valve". But since it can be tuned to be a Gb (i.e. 2+3) with a longer slide setting on the 5th valve slide, I guess that's why I've seen it called a " 'two, three' 5th valve" most often.

Any other votes?
