Nominal bond
From Bogleheads
A nominal bond (also referred to as a conventional bond in Canada and the U.K.) is a bond which makes payments of a fixed amount, rather than a fixed real (inflation-adjusted) value. Most bonds are nominal, so the term is normally used only when contrasting nominal bonds with real-return bonds such as I Bonds or TIPS. For example, a popular bond investment strategy is 50% nominal bonds and 50% inflation-linked bonds.
