[edit] Ethnonym for Persian Jews
Persian Jews are indeed Mizrachim. The notion of "included in" goes back to the tenuous notion of what Mizrahim are, of course. For further discussion, see Talk:Mizrahi Jew. There is no distinct collective ethnonym for these communities, since they long lived in relative isolation from one another, especially none analogous to the ethnonyms Ashkenazi or Sephardi.
