They are called "steel helmets", either the M35 (model 1935), or M18 (for model 1918), etc. US servicemen in WWI called the M16 (model 1916) a "scuttle bucket" because it resembled a coal scuttle bucket. The M16 is the same design as the M18 and later M35; it's just that the M35 is the classic WWII German helmet...a much shortened back neck and lower crown...and no Frankenstein lug nuts at the forehead.
For German enthusiasts who enjoy using the German language, they call the German steel helmet, a "stehlhelm."
