I don't recall hearing anyone call them "microfloppies".  Butit seems there is some confusion about their name, especially today as most people haven't used them in a while - I've seen some posts online where people try to say the 3.5" discs weren't floppy disks because they were hard/rigid..  I think those people might be people too young to have used them though.
