If you are referring to the cross with the loop on top, it is called an ankh.
An ankh is known as the Egyptian staff or cross of life. They are generally depicted as a cross with a loop at the top where the vertical short arm of the cross would be. There are some depictions of ankhs with a circle instead of a loop at the top, but these are much less common.
That's called an Ankh. It's the Egyptian symbol of protection or everlasting life or something.

What an interesting question! How about you tell us first what the bottom loop is called? I always thought the whole symbol "&" was an ampersand. Now you have me thinking that the name for the top loop could be ampers, with the bottom left incognito. After all, it does say ampers and . . .

First answer: i used toilet paper for mine. My solution: Simply cross the two strands in the middle (+). Now loop the top over and then the bottom. Cross the sides over one piece and under the other. You can do this if you hold the two pieces between thumb and forefinger with one piece parallel to the thumb. Loop one of the perpendicular pieces loosely over the thumb leaving slack. Now loop the other end of the same piece the other way (One over from top to bottom and the other next to it from bottom over to top. Catch the pieces in your pinch.)
