It is protons and neutrons that are known as nucleons when they are considered as the building blocks of an atomic nucleus. Electrons are not considered nucleons. Electrons form up in orbitals around an atomic nucleus. It is the protons and neutrons that make up the nucleus of a given atom and not the electrons. A related question is linked below.

Where is the subatomic particles located?
Protons and neutrons are in the center of an atom in the nucleus. Electrons are dispersed around the nucleus.
Where in the atom do you find each of the subatomic particles?
The only subatomic particle that has any role in chemistry is the electron.
How many protons and electrons does a neutron have?
None. Protons and electrons are not constituents of a neutron. Both neutrons and protons are constituents of an atom's nucleus (core), while the electrons are situated in the electronic cloud around the nucleus.
Which particle or particles make up the nucleus?
Every nucleus (except for Hydrogen) consists of protons and neutrons. The hydrogen nucleus is only a proton.
Do protons circle the nucles of an atom?
No, Electrons do. Protons do not orbit around the nucleus of atom. It is electron which moves around the nucleus.
Where is the subatomic particles located?
Protons and neutrons are in the center of an atom in the nucleus. Electrons are dispersed around the nucleus.
