I tend to call it the "persistent copy" of the environment (resp. copies in case of redundant environment), in contrast to the in memory copy of it. Upon start, the memory copy gets initialized from the persistent one, unless this turns out to be corrupt (or uninitialized, the effect is the same), in which case the builtin default environment is used to initialize the in memory copy.
