What is the cardboard collar that priests wear called?

It's simply called a clerical collar or Roman collar..Catholic AnswerPriests do not wear "cardboard collars", I assume that you are referring to the white collar that you see under their black collar. Originially (and up until recently, I don't know if you can still get them) this was a white linen collar exactly like the ones that men used to wear when collars were detachable. They were fastened on with collar buttons, the only difference was that the clerical collars were worn backwards with the opening in the back. In days gone by, the clergy would just wear this white collar put on backwards above a black shirt - the "tab" that you commonly see came into existence because when a priest wore a cassock, it had a standup black collar with a small opening in the front which showed about an inch or so of the white collar. That look became popular right before Vatican Council II, and now clerical shirts are even made with the black stand-up part to leave only an inch or so of the white collar showing. The linen was starched heavily, just as regular men's collars were. Nowadays, most priests wear plastic collars as they stand up and don't have to be ironed and starched as the old ones did. (Not that old, I remember wearing the starched linen collars in the seminary, and I'm not sixty yet!)
