Nuclear Transfer (a form of cloning).
Ian Wilmut, along with his team at the Roslin Institute in Scotland, cloned the sheep named Dolly using a technique called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). They took a mature somatic cell from the udder of a Finn Dorset ewe and fused it with an enucleated egg cell from a Scottish Blackface ewe. The resulting embryo was then implanted into a surrogate mother, which eventually gave birth to Dolly. This process demonstrated that a differentiated cell could be reprogrammed to develop into a whole organism.
In 1997, a team led by embryologist Dr. Ian Wilmut successfully cloned the first adult mammal, a sheep named Dolly. This groundbreaking achievement demonstrated that it is possible to clone mammals from adult cells.
Dolly was identical in every way to her clone
She was called Dolly after Dolly Parton, the country music singer known for her trademark blonde hair and large chest. The sheep that was cloned and named Dolly was significant in the field of genetics as the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell.
Dolly's creator was primarily interested in cloning as a better way to make drugs. Ian Wilmut's sponsor, PPL Therapeutics Ltd., had proven that sheep which were genetically engineered could make certain drugs in their milk. If the sheep could be cloned, they could build a herd of drug producing sheep.

No, Ian Wilmut did not call cloning "cloning." He is known for his work in cloning Dolly the sheep, the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell, but the term "cloning" was used to describe the process before his work.

Dolly the sheep was the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell. She was cloned near Edinburgh by Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell and their colleagues at the Roslin Institute and the biotechnology company PPL Therapeutics. Dolly was created by inserting the nucleus of a somatic (non-sex) cell into an oocyte (developing ovum/egg) and then using an electric shock to cause this cell to divide. The resulting blastocyst is then implanted into a surrogate mother.
