How do I call this opening?

It's incredible that I get caught in a online game and got curious about of the name of the opening. Playing 2.e6 would avoid the sac. Anyway is there a name for this?

That totally doesn't seem sound.

This gambit certainly isn't sound, black can play the natural Nf6, Bg7 and Rf8 and have a natural developed position: white has nothing for the Bishop. How did the game go that this is from?

It's just bad for White--in fact so bad I do not think it has a name. I did find two games in my files with it (Black won both) I like 5...d6 slightly better

What a joke!  Play that for a laugh!

I checked it on Fritz - 1 game that unbeleivably Black won!  It went the same as the diagram up above until Black's fifth move, which was d6.

Fritz reckons it's a waste of a Bishop - hasn't White got anything better to spend his Bishop on?
