ENX, going by what you're saying about not using hacks, I believe the most fitting name for it would be the Lingering Remnant.  Before you yell at me for being ridiculous, just hear me out.
The only other "sentiment/will/remnant" seen so far is the Vanitas Remnant.  In Japanese, the word "shinen" is used in the place of "remnant", as in "The Shinen (thoughts) of Vanitas".  It is also used in the Japanese Lingering Will/Sentiment/Remnant's name, as in "The Lingering Shinen (thoughts)".  Seeing as how the word "shinen" was translated to "remnant" in Birth by Sleep, the safest name for the Lingering Sentiment/Will/Remnant is the Lingering Remnant.  It is based off of an official translation, did not involve any hacking of the game, and is, in my humble opinion, as "official" as it gets until an official English name is released.
I don't quite know about the VA part, although I interpreted Terra's voice at the end to be the feelings inside the Lingering Remnant talking, expressing his desire to set things right.  Although what you said about dead people speaking in movies is extremely valid, that is just how I interpreted the scene.  I also think the reason the Lingering Remnant's voice sounds metallic in KHIIFM is that a seiyyu (sorry if I misspelled that) had simply not been cast yet, similarly to Xemnas in KHFM. That is why I think the Lingering Remnant's VAs should be listed.
Thanks for listening to my five cents.}}
