What is the proper name for -webkit- / -moz- prefixes in CSS?

I have used -webkit- and -moz- prefixes for a long time now and I don't know what the proper name for these prefixes is. Could someone please put my mind at ease and tell me what the proper name is?

As mentioned in the comments "vendor prefix" and "browser prefix" are the most commonly used names.

It looks like the w3c refers to them as "Vendor-specific extensions", but that is the only place I've ever seen them called that.

I usually say "browser prefix", no one has ever corrected me or not understood what I meant when saying it.
