Bass Clarinet is the correct English name. Scores often have the instrument names in other languages but clarinetto basso (Italian), clarinette basse (French) and bassklarinette (German) are pretty obvious.

On a lighter note, I once knew a follow who called his bass Clarinet Susie, and I've heard the instrument called a variety of colorful names after a particularly difficult passage.
