Fish slice? Spatula? Or something else?

Turner seems widely used in product listings. I've always said spatula, but there's a bit of ambiguity between this type of spatula and a rubber spatula of the type used to scrape sides of mixing bowls and such.

I've never heard anyone call it a turner, but again that may have more to do with where I live. As a kid the item in OPs picture was the only thing we called a spatula. I didn't even see a rubber scraper style spatula until I was in high school I think lol

I honestly don't think I've heard turner IRL either. Just happened to notice it a lot when I was shopping for one on Amazon. Rubber spatula gets a lot of use if you bake, though.
