 It's called 'cheater plug' but it's name is 'grounding adapter (plug)'.

I always thought "cheater plugs" were the lines cords used to bypass the safety interlock preventing powering up hot chassis TV sets with the rear metal grate removed. The standard line cord was attacked to the rear metal so the only way you could apply power was with the rear cover in place.
