"British Naval Connector" or "Bayonet Neill-Concelman" depending on who you
believe :)
Amphenol RF insist it's "Bayonet Neill-Concelman", named after one of their
engineers, who developed it in the late 1940s.
<http://www.amphenolrf.com/products/bnc.asp> if you're interested.

I'm still trying to find a way to make a hole in a plastic panel to mount a
BNC properly. I failed miserably on the frequency counter I made - the BNC
connector spins while you're trying to plug a probe in. Oops.

Later.
