They're called jills. And you actually have to wear one if you want to fight in the SCA.

ETA: No, wait, I'm thinking of the cups for women. Oops. But yes, there is a jock strap in order to hold the cup in place. I have one.

Leaper is right! I don't know the collouqial term for them, but I've heard them called a 'pubic arch protector'. Now, if you ever want to take up sword and shield, you know!
