I would be fine with either "associatedtype", "typeassociation" or "associated" but "associatedtype" is my favorite.

Not sure if that has been proposed before but "assoctype" might be another option that still includes the word "type" but is a bit shorter.
But personally I'd prefer "associatedtype" since it's clearer and it's not a keyword that is used often enough for the shortening to be worth it.
