    Looks like a sort of fish slice to me.

    Spatulas are either long thin metal things or short licky rubber things.

    I'm in the US, and most people I know call it a spatula but I have heard some people just call it a "flipper"

    In my home a spatula was always a tool with a flat rubber end, so this thing is a flipper. What do you call the rubber headed thing that you scrape bowls out with?

    I'm my home, we have a variety of spatulas. Rubber spatula - both "no the big one" and "no the little one"; metal spatulas include: "my favorite"/"the sharp one", "the big shitty one", and "the curvy one"; and irregulars such as "the big offset", "that stupid orange one", and "the icing spatt".

    A rubber spatula or "the good one, I need to get all the sauce out of this pan".

    Actually we speak French and English 50/50 because Montreal, and in French it actually has a name "Une Maryse", which is defined as: "a rubber spatula".

    Turner seems widely used in product listings. I've always said spatula, but there's a bit of ambiguity between this type of spatula and a rubber spatula of the type used to scrape sides of mixing bowls and such.

    I've never heard anyone call it a turner, but again that may have more to do with where I live. As a kid the item in OPs picture was the only thing we called a spatula. I didn't even see a rubber scraper style spatula until I was in high school I think lol

    When we're feeling whimsical, we call it Fionn mac Cumhail, because in our minds fins and flippers are the same thing.

    That there's a spatchalur, or more commonly a "spatch" for short.

    If you're around people who are all "proper", it's a spatula.

    Around here it's flipper, spatula, or pancake turner

    I've never heard anyone say fish slice before this thread

    That is a flip turner.

    Fish slice for sure. I suppose upon thinking about it, it's like a specialised sub-category of spatula? Like I can't think of anything that makes it not a spatula

    This would be called a turner, or spatula(incorrect).
