1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 f5 is often called the Schliemann Defense but a more accurate name and also common is the Jaenisch Gambit if that's what you were looking for. Here's a page on it: http://www.chess.com/article/view/the-jaenischschliemann-gambit

(we were posting at the same time.) Sorry I thought you misspelled it at first. It does appear Yanish is an exceptable variant but Jaenisch is the more common spelling in English.
