The term "Chip" refers to a small piece that has been broken off from a larger object, often used in contexts like woodworking or pottery. Additionally, "Chip" is a common nickname for boys, often derived from names like Charles or Christopher. It conveys a sense of playfulness and youthfulness. In both contexts, "Chip" carries a connotation of being small but significant.
That would be called a "nick".
