$\begingroup$ Thanks for suggesting Math.StackExchange as an alternative venue for this question. I agree that this is a relatively basic question about terminology. In this case it so happens that it did arise during research activities. $\endgroup$– 0 _Commented Jun 4, 2017 at 3:19

Strip.
This is how it is used in complex analysis, where strips are common (as domains for various transcendental functions). I have seen the same term in other contexts...
