I would use "double contraction" which sounds more clear

Suffix-Prefix Double Contractions: suffix-prefix double contractions are formed from two contractions where the suffix of one contraction is the prefix of the other:

she + would + have = she'd + would've = she'd've

she + would + have = she'd + would've = she'd've

Prefix-Prefix Double Contractions: prefix-prefix double contractions, are formed from two contractions that share a prefix:

they + will + have = they'll + they've = they'll've

they + will + have = they'll + they've = they'll've

Peculiar Cases: double contractions where one of the contractions isn't arrived at formulaically makes the double contraction peculiar:

he will not = he'll not = he'lln't
he will not = he won't = he'on't

he will not = he'll not = he'lln't
he will not = he won't = he'on't
