Just spitballing, we could call it, oh i dunno The Purge ^^TM^^ or something.
(Trivia: on windows, alt+0153 will give you the ™ symbol - it's ctrl+shift+u+[some hex string I can't remember] on linux! If you're on mobile, godspeed.)
Unfortunately, alt codes never worked for me because I don't have a numpad. L to all my fellow 80% or smaller keyboard users. Works fine on Linux though, the number is 2122.
Alternatively Compose + tm works if you have Compose key enabled. Easier to use than memorizing Unicode code point numbers, for the supported characters at least.
