What was the name of the 1990s technology-stock bubble that burst in 2000?

The 1990s technology-stock bubble that burst in 2000 was the dot-com bubble.

Investors poured money into internet companies, many of which had little revenue, no profits, or untested business models. The rapid spread of the World Wide Web encouraged the belief that traditional measures of company value no longer applied.

The Nasdaq Composite reached a peak of 5,048.62 on March 10, 2000. It then fell sharply as investors reassessed technology valuations and companies struggled to meet expectations. The downturn continued after the peak and contributed to a recession in the United States.

Not every internet company failed. Amazon and eBay survived the crash and later became major businesses, while many heavily promoted startups disappeared. The bubble therefore refers to the speculative market period, not to the internet itself.
