As far as I know, the ENERGY is just called ENERGY. The unit is joules.

Other related terms include:

The sound energy is related to its AMPLITUDE, but the two are not the same.

The POWER is the amount of energy per time unit. The unit is joules/second = watts.

The intensity (unit: watts / square meter) is the amount of power that passes through each unit area (cross section).
