it depends on the language you're playing chess.

In english it's the knight and in gGerman it's the jumper or horse. In italy it's also the horse and in french it's the jockey.

The bishop is in german chess the runner. In russian chess it's the elephant. In italy it's the sergeant.

Don't know why these two chesspieces have so many different names.
