What do you call a type of software bug that has been seen more than once?

A certain type of bug kept appearing in various places on our website. It was related to text size appearing too big. Rather than trying to explain it each time I saw it, I called it 'Big Text Syndrome'.
Maybe giving a re-occuring software bug a name can help us better communicate the issue to people within the team.
