HP never gave it a name as far as I know. They seemed lackluster in naming their languages early on. On their HP3000 stack-oriented mini computers they called their pretty nifty low-level language: SPL - System Programming Language. So maybe they, or we, should just call it Calculator Programming Language - CPL.
