Mercury(I) fluoride- mercurous fluoride. It contains the Hg2+ ion. It depends what you are being taught. One 2005 recommendation from IUPAC is that simple oxidation numbers shouldn't be applied to homopolyatomic (means more tha one atom all the same!) ions - so it should be dimercury(I)- which tells you a bit more about the structure.
