What is the locus of all points that are equidistant from 2 lines called?

Assume that all distances are measured along the appropriate perpendicular. There is no specific name for the locus since the locus can be two or one straight lines, depending upon the original two lines.
If the two lines are intersecting then the locus is a pair of straight lines that bisect the two angles formed by the original lines.
If the original two lines are parallel, then the locus is a line parallel to them and halfway between them.

What is a locus of points equidistant from a point?
A locus of points is just the set of points satisfying a given condition. The locus of points equidistant from a point is a circle, since a circle is just a set of points which are all the same distance away from the center
