Yes, "tilde" is pronounced "tilda" (but if it is pronounced that way, why isn't it spelled that way???). I always knew the other symbol on that key to be the grave accent, or accent key, but as a long-time programmer, we referred to it most often as the "back quote". (If you do a Google search on that key you can read all about its history and variances on printing equipment and various keyboards around the world - actually more than you'll ever want to know.)

Wonder what the Japanese call it - probably the "hasooo" key :-) Uwe
