I can confirm that Ralph Betza coined Doughnut for Bakery Bombers, mentioned in the summary of the Pancake page. Templar is the problematist usage (though still not listed on the new All the King's men page), but as with so many names it is used differently in variants - in Templar Chess Templar means Ferz+Dabbaba+Elephant. Viscount I cannot recall being used for this piece - my own use of Viscount is for a hex-prism piece, the forward-only version of the Marquis.
