Ah! I've heard splat for "!". Except maybe I got it wrong and they were using splat for any symbol and it just happened to be "!" that day

Oh, "!" is clearly "bang". Lesser-known fact: "?" is "huh?".
! is pling! Though that was just for a certain period of time in the UK. The pressing question is what do I call "⅋"?
