If there is L2 cache in the processor housing and additional cache on the motherboard the cache on the motherboard is called cache?

The motherboard doesn't contain cache. The chips do, but the motherboard contain RAM modules. Like when you hear a PC has 512MB of memory. The cache (memory on the chip) follows lines called a bus to the RAM (memory on the motherboard).Answer: Level 3

What is the cache memory required for the system to be fast?

Cache memory is special, high-speed static memory that is used to reduce the amount of accesses to dynamic RAM. While cache memory used to be on the motherboard, it is now most commonly found inside the CPU. Static memory is larger, costlier to produce, and uses more current than DRAM. But static memory is the fastest type of memory there is and it doesn't need refreshed (so long as the power is maintained). So cache is a compromise to store the most used code and data to reduce the access to the slower DRAM.
