There is no special name for the speed of sound at sea level, because the sea level and every other air pressure high up in the mountain has nothing to do with the speed of sound. Scroll down to related links and look at "Speed of sound - temperature matters, not air pressure".
There is no special name for it.
By the way, the speed of sound has nothing to do with the sea level.
The speed of sound has much to do with the temperature.
At 20° Celsius the speed of sound is 343 m/s.

but there's nothing wrong at all with calling it "speed of the wave".

What is the speed at which a wave travels through water or other medium called?
The speed at which a wave passes through water or other medium is called phase velocity.
What is the distance a wave travels in a certain amount of time is called what?
The distance that a wave travels in a certain amount of time is a wavelength. Wrong,it's speed.(:
How does the speed of a photon compare with the speed of an electromagnetic wave?
Light can be considered as a wave, or as a particle. As a particle, the particles are called photons. As a wave, light is an electromagnetic wave. In either case, the speed of light (in a vacuum) is approximately 300,000 km/sec.
The speed at which a wave travels through a medium is called what?
Frequency
The dependence of wave speed and index of refraction on wavelenght is called?
Dispersion.
What is the speed at which a wave travels through a medium called?
wave speed
What is the speed at which a wave travels through water or other medium called?
The speed at which a wave passes through water or other medium is called phase velocity.
The speed at which a wave travels through a medium is called?
The Speed At Which Wave Travels Is Known As Wave Velocity.It Is Denoted As 'v' which Equals The Product Of Its Frequency And Wavelength.

What is wave speed energy called?
Wavelength.

What is the shock wave called if a jet flies faster than the speed of sound?
The shock wave is called SONIC BOOM.
When wave changes directions when its speed changes what is it called?
It's called refraction.
What is it called when wave changes directions when its speed changes?
It's called refraction.
The speed at which a wave travels through a medium is called what?
Frequency
The dependence of wave speed and index of refraction on wavelenght is called?
Dispersion.
What kind of wave is speed?
Speed is not a wave.
