Personal opinion, take what you will:
Nationals is how I knew it first when my sister screamed into the phone back in 2002 that "we had won 'nationals'"
Nowadays, considering its an international event, I like calling it the Championship Event, or just plain the championship or Champs.
World Championship goes a little too bold, in that we have yet to see teams come from the North and South Poles to compete
(Santa and his Elves have a team yet??? Whats their number???)... I stick to calling the Champs an International event.
So its champs, and its fun that way, at least in my perspective.

PS: or we could just call it that big thingy/gathering down in Atlanta... yeah...
