Edit: (What do you call this dish?)
Edit: (Slice of bread with a hole cut in the middle and an egg fried in it.) I have always called them daddy-o eggs but I have recently been informed that is incorrect.-
humorlessrepost, Egg in a frame
But the bread needs to be cooked in butter like a grilled cheese.
IvanOverdrive, In Canada we would call it Texas Toast. But it’s usually thicker square, white bread.

We don’t call it that. It’s just thick toast. And the dish is toad-in-the-hole.
eta: yes I know the British toad is a different dish. Fanny means something different there too.
Kuvwert, Nesting eggs!
Or eggy in a basket if you’re talking to Natalie Portman
pyrflie, (edited ) Egg in the hole.
But a poorly cooked one since it looks like the egg is cooked through without having toasted the bread. Ideally the egg yolk will be runny and the bread toasted on both sides. It’s also missing the interior ‘dipper’ toasted separately. Looks like good bread though.
RebekahWSD, 
Toad-in-the-hole! Maybe. We only ever had them like once, scrambled eggs were far more common.
palitu, Toad in the hole. Australia
pyrflie, (edited ) I have to know where you are from. I have never heard of this as Toad in the hole, and this like the 6th comment in thread I’ve seen of it.
I only know Toad in the hole as Sausage in bread.
I know you don’t want to DOX but just region. NE US, AUS, NZ? I gotta know.

“Toad-in-the-hole” sounds British to me.
Edit: @fluke said “toad-in-the-hole” refers to something else, some other breakfast food.
pyrflie, British Toad in the hole is Sausage in Bread.

Sausage in Yorkshire pudding! Unless that’s called bread in the US in which case we are several layers deep into this word inception.
pyrflie, Close enough, but yes.
British pudding in the situation called out is close enough for me. If they are willing to pervert toast, I’m willing to pervert bread.
Even pudding is getting fucked in the ass with this metaphor.
killeronthecorner, AFAIA, The pudding part is because pudding referred to meat dishes long before it was used for sweet dishes, and yorkshire pudding used to be exclusively served with meat - which is likely tightly linked to the original meaning of toad in the hole!
MrsDoyle, It’s bloody delicious too.

(Just say batter, the word “pudding” will make their heads explode.)
killeronthecorner, It’s batter pre-cook, pudding post-cook, and yes you’re damn right it’s bloody delicious.
fluke, Then what is a pancake? Same batter, but different cooking method.
killeronthecorner, Exactly! Fried instead of baked.

Peppycito, Ontario Canada. Toad in the hole/egg in the hole. Piggy in a blanket is a sausage wrapped in a pancake.
swordsmanluke, Not GP, but I’ve always called this Toad in the hole. Western USA.
modcolocko, South Georgian here, we also call it this.
flubba86, I’m in Australia, we call this one with an egg “toad in a hole”, I’ve never seen the one with a sausage.
ReddsWay, My wife introduced it to me as something her family called a “Hollywood egg” I guess due to fact you feel so glamorous eating one.
ZombiFrancis, “Egg in toast”.
We were a creative family.
bjoern_tantau, 
“Egg in bread” for us.
Telcontar, I grew up calling them egg on toast lol. We weren’t only unimaginative, we couldn’t even describe the food right
DirigibleProtein, A plate? If it’s a bit deeper it could be a bowl.
badbytes, Toast on an avocado plate
quotheraven404, Am I the first one to say Popeye except for the wikipedia? Crazy!
KipmanDynamite, (edited ) Eggs in a basket, toad in a hole, one eyed jack, eggs in a nest
SoleInvictus, 
Isn’t toad in the hood sausages in Yorkshire pudding?
funkless_eck, yes.
TechLich, “Toad in the Hood” is the gritty HBO sequel to “The Wind in the Willows” that takes place after Toad breaks out of prison.
asterisk, 
Apart from the hole, that could be chicken on a raft, an old Royal Navy dish.
pruwybn, 
I would probably call it a piece of bread with an egg on it.
Sho, Chicken in a basket
StephniBefni, Eggy in a basket for sure!
