Seasoned Advice Asked on August 19, 2021
Not sure if there is an proper name, had it in Israel but have seen it (or similar variations) in Moroccan restaurants (in the US). Comprised of primarily diced cucumbers and tomatoes, that have been seasoned.
Not too surprisingly given where you found it, it's called an Israeli Salad in most parts of the world.
In Israel, it's just called a chopped salad or (according to the wiki article - I never personally encountered this) an Arab salad.

Probably not in Israel, but there is an Iranian recipe called Salad-e Shirazi. It contains chopped tomato, cucumber, onion, lime juice, olive oil, fresh mint, salt and pepper.

In Turkey it is referred to as Çoban salatası (pronounced 'choban'; shepherd's salad.)
Usually consisting of tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, salt, oil, lemon, and sometimes pomegranate juice.

The description itself is the base for Fattoush, which has as many names as variations:
I found one place that calls it "Jerusalem Salad" (theirs is served with tahini). Another restaurant has a variation that includes green bell peppers called "Lebanese Salad." (Click here for a bunch of pretty pictures)

In Morocco, this is a very common salad, it's usually made from diced cucumbers, tomato, and parsley to which a vinaigrette is added, some people add finely chopped onions. Variations include mint, and the vinaigrette is sometimes made with salt, pepper and paprika or cumin also.

Greek or Turkish shepherds salad is the most common name by folks who aren't Jewish in my area. As its a pan Mediterranean salad I suspect folks call it whatever region of that area they are closest to.
