So what do you call the plug on a 'walkman'
headphone? We'd call it a 3
pole (or 'stereo') 3.5mm jack plug.
Here when it's not called 3.5mm, it's called 1/8th inch. And the 2.5mm
version is 3/32 inch.

Yep. It's a phone plug regardless of size AFAIK.
You also mentioned a "coax" plug used for antennas... we have one called a
"motorola" plug used for car radio antennas, that has a metal sheath which
surrounds the coax cable and is about the same diameter, and a pin sticking
out for the center conductor. A "coax" plug usually means the kind used for
DC power connections, with an outer barrel and an inner barrel, which mates
with a jack that has a pin for the inner barrel and usually a single finger
that presses against the side of the outer barrel. I think I've seen about
6 or 8 different sizes of those.

"Mini phone plug" for the 1/8" and "sub mini phone plug" for the
3/32"
version.
