What is the common English name for that "plastic part on the tip of a shoelace" which helps to easily insert the lace into the shoelace holes? (I'm not sure that's the correct name).
Edit: There are also metal parts of the kind.

It's called an "aglet".
I've known and used this term for years but whether it can be considered "commonly known" is up for debate. It's certainly not unheard of.
