For what it's worth:
The triangular depression on the front of the neck, below the lower
portion of the Adam's apple [cricoid cartelage] and the lateral
sternocleidomastoid muscles is called the jugular notch.
[The depression below the protuberance on the back of the skull -
The Inion - is formed by the thin tendonous attachment of the trapezius
muscles.
What's his name when he's at home? Other than the vernacular "going
for the jugular" - which probably refers to the vulnerable windpipe at
this spot - I think they await an artistic nomenclature.
