If the first derivative is the slope and the second the acceleration, then what is it called for the values before the first derivative?

f(x) - ?

df(x)/dx - slope

d² f(x)/dx² - acceleration

f(x) - ? df(x)/dx - slope d^2 f(x)/dx^2 - acceleration

That's it! The slope vs acceleration thing was bugging me but I couldn't put my finger on why. Thanks.
