Depending on what breed of horse and what breed of pony, there may be a specific name for the crossbred. For example, Arabians and Welsh crosses are called Welaras. Some crossbreds are just "grade" horses or ponies, and would be classified by their adult height. 14.2 hh (58" at the whithers, or highest point of the shoulder) is the upper height limit for most pony breeds. Anything under 14.2 is a pony, anything over is a horse.
