I have always known them as welsh plugs, I don't know the origins but my
brother a fitter always called them that in the early 1970's and I know that
I have been to engineering and auto-parts stores to buy them by that name.

It may be another of those "countries divided by a common language" issues,
just like fenders, wings and mudguards for the US, UK and Australia. Would
make for an interesting study.  Where were "core plugs" invented and was it
by a Welsh engineer?

Cheers
Diana
