That trait would probably be best described as "calico". But there are already a few different types of calico Black rat morphs in the hobby, although they are different from your phenotype. So maybe a name just a bit more unigue and distinctive to set this one apart from them would be better if it proves-out to be a recessive trait and more are produced into the hobby.
Maybe something like "freckled calico", or "splatter-pattern calico", or the town name in front of the word "calico" to give it distinction from the other calico traits.
