What do you call that “thing” around your neck?

What do you call that “thing” that hangs on the chain around your neck?  Do you call it a slide? A pendant? A necklace? A bezel?  Me, I never know what to call my handmade pendants.  Julie Sanford calls her pendants that are purchased alone a “slide”.  Her reason is that she wants you to be able to dress it up or down on a cord or with a chain.  We have four artists who create jewelry for us – Casey Bemis, Cindy Edgerle, Julie Sanford, and Lochlin Smith.  Each jeweler has their own style.
