Although the name of the HTML page itself suggests otherwise 
(http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/freebsd-license.html).
Some 
of the links to that page also call it the FreeBSD
license.

The over 14,000 Google hits for "freebsd license" at least

demonstrates that it is not something Russ invented. There
are 
many instances of it being used to refer to the actual
license text 
outside the context of the FreeBSD project.

It should also be noted that the FSF includes "FreeBSD
license" 
on their own license list.
